3 years in the making from what I understand.
It has more to do with extruding a type
of clay threw heads,dies,etc.
(honing?)

The clay more or less polishes the inside
of the bores, allowing better heat transfer
and surface finish.

Where the ultra-sonics comes in to the picture is beyond me.

Anywho,it's supposed to give the ID's a mirror like finish, even the old mixers and
heads that are painted in that olive green color from WW2.

In 99% of the cleaning, I would have to agree
with Felix.
Depending on the type of material your working with, and the type of coatings (stainless,chrome,HS...)will determin
weather you get a lunch break or not.

I have found it all ends with steel wool,BUCKETS of waterless hand soap, and a putty knife.

Some things will never change.
