Cooling system Gunge - winchman - 05-08-2022

Removed the hoses today, the bottom of the rad has some greasy slime in it and the ports to the engine are full of what looks like Crystallised Anti freeze, loosened easily enough and hoovers out but how would you flush the system ?
I thought warm water?
