I cleaned a similar machine with Oxiclean. It came out very clean. Simple Green helped with the smoke odor, but not the discoloration.

I bought the gojo and it worked perfectly. I still need to get into the corners and crevices. We're getting a bathroom rebuilt, which backs up to one of my "stuff" closets. So, we have things everywhere. I can't find anything. Once this bathroom is finished, I can straighten the garage and finish up my machine (and find the q-tips). The cabinet needs a little refurb and the machine still needs lots of cleaning, inside and out. It runs really slowly, so I assume there is a lot of gunk in it.

I'm very pleased. I found one scratch on the paint.

Now, I need to keep an eye out for the cams to show up.
