What about grease coating the blower housing and the blower itself? This is where I've seen videos of the cleaning process and felt like the whole idea was problematic. 

 

There's two blowers, one is only used when turned on "high".  The all-the-time blower has no visible grease. The high speed blower, which isn't used as much, has a few greasy blades, just a few.  They've not been cleaned, or even looked-at, for about 10 yrs. The housing has the same greasy film that I ignore on the inside of the hood. 

 

So for ten years of  use 5 or so days a week there isn't much to clean

 

ETA I just checked the specs on my hood  its a B200 MSL Magic Lung ...which is 900 cfm
