Parts washer, what fluid?

[Mark7810s]

Recently acquired a medium sized parts washer. Cant find any clear cut advice as to what fluid to put in it. Most degreasers seem to be water based and im not sure if thats the right thing for something thats reused.
Will be needing 30ish litres i rekon.
Lets see what we can come up with!

Drain some kero out of the central heating tank. I'm about to so the same thing.

I expect someone will say there's something wrong with it though.

Kero Or Diesel... The Clarke stuff in the drums good as well... but hassle ordering collecting waiting.

Our serviced one at work uses Kerosene but you can buy 25ltr drums of water soluble degreaser aswell if it would be better. The kerosene one is handy to wash paint brushes aswell

Low odour kerosene.

Waw yes!! Parents had a small weep in their CH tank a while ago, we pumped it out into 45gallon drums, replaced tank on a new plinth and pumped it back in. I never really notice or worry about oil or diesel etc smell but I could smell it on me for days and the odour was in the shed for weeks after!!!
