Steamer

[Holly the U2]

My wife bought a steamer to do her dresses. Can I use it on a powder coated cage to get the cement poop of the grates or will it peel the paint off?

I use a steamer on my cage and everything inside it. No issues so far. LOVE IT

I use my steamer weekly on my old-style Avian Adventures cages (12 years old), as well as several newer models of Kings' cages and never has it knocked any of the powder-coating off any cage. I think you can steam with confidence that your cage will be just fine.

I have a steamer and will never go back. An hour long process turned into 20 minutes, plus the cages are far cleaner because it reaches the incredibly difficult places to clean/disinfect. I love it.

I just got a steamer because I wanted it for the cage (a powder coated King's cage). It cleaned it really well.

Same here.

I consider those essential cage cleaning tools, and I echo the remarks about getting to the really hard to reach places, and just melting and wiping...

Definitely a useful cleaning tool. Well worth the hundred bucks or so that they cost.

I used it last night and it worked great, steam and then wipe with a damp rag

I use my steamer weekly on Dexter's cage. For some reason he loves to stand on his perch (away from the cage, obviously) and yell at me the entire time I'm half inside his cage, crouched in crazy positions steam cleaning. My husband says he's telling me not to miss any spots.
