I have found it much easier to just fill up sink with really water and I add dish soap and Comet/Ajax and just let them sit for a bit then rinse. It's so much easier to wash/rinse after that and no greasy residue.
I've put all my tips and any metal tools in a pot, cover them with water and let it boil on the stove for a few minutes (10 or so). Then I rinse with water and sometimes I'll do it again in case there's still some icing left. But that usually gets my tips pretty clean. Hot water is the key though.
Anyone else here do that? If so, have you ever cleaned your plastic couplers with that method? I've been wanting to try it but I'm afraid the boiling water and metal pot will melt or warp the plastic. Don't want that to happen. . .
I have put my tools in a large bowl and poured boiling water on them, but never boiled them in a pot. I put my decorator bags and couplers in the bowl too.
