I am not sure if the terms are the same. What I call Carburator Cleaner comes in a spray can and is a clear fluid.
The Dip I was speaking of comes in a 1 gallon (or 5 gallon cans). It is black gray in color, smelly and has Phorsphoric acid in it.
If you leave Aluminum parts in it for a long time like over night it will discolor it; steel parts also. The Dip is made to put the whole dissembled Carburator into and some companies sold the can with a parts basket that fit the can.
Washed the Dip off with Water and dried the parts with compressed air. After that we also washed the parts off with Solovent and blew them dry with compressed air.
They probably make some sort of Dip but I bet it has a different forumla now as I believe the Old Stuff was toxic. If left on your hands too long it would eat on them.
