Simple Green works wonders and it's not toxic. You don't even have to wear
gloves. I cleaned a kitchen with it and we took the screen out of the
exhaust fan and tossed it in the sink. It was *solid* with grease. It
soaked overnight and was sparkling clean. You'll find it in the automotive
department.
