Not unless it's already fairly pristine. And you'd have to use boiling water to degrease. Orange oil is much better. It's an earth friendly cleaner and it degreases very nicely. All the state agencies use it on heavy equipment. I used to work for the NDOR and we used it to clean off tar, grease, etc.
