The best way to heat the cyls up after de greasing them is to get a steam wallpaper stripper, reduce the outlet hose to some 1/4 inch pipe,invert cyls over pipe, support cyl and let the thing heat up.
It will take about 2-3 mins to become very hot, so be carefull when lifting cyl off, get a flexy hose attatched to a cyl of clean air and poke inside o2 cleaned cyl, turn on, and it will almost instantly dry out. So no flash rust.
