Abstract:  
Automotive heads and manifolds or like molded or cast articles are continuously cleaned by projected streams of impinging particles, by pushing a series of such articles axially into one end of an elongated skeletal barrel that holds these articles in position and rotates them in the path of such impinging streams while they are so held. The successive articles are pushed into one end of the barrel and these push cleaned articles out of the other end of the barrel.
