Dishwasher

I've done it. Works on everything (except aluminium)!
I can confirm that it does the job very well though I have ruined one Ever-Ready SE with an aluminium handle this way.
Now every 2nd hand razor I buy receives this treatment.
 
Dish washers are great at de-greasing bicycle components too. The washing machine brings old tyres up a treat if you were wondering.

Just remember to remove all evidence before SWMBO spots it or there will be repercussions.

You can put them in a thick sock and put them in a washing machine

Although leaving a Blackberry (not the fruit) in a trouser pocket then washing said trousers brings the Blackberry up a treat, it does nothing positive for its functionality...
 

Neither does slamming the bed, pissed fully dressed with an iPhone in your pocket
 

i did this with my crapberry, the hairdryer worked a treat though
