Default Dpf cleaner

I’ve read here people cleaning their dpf themselves, squirting something into the dpf and leaving it a while. What’s the best stuff to use? I’ve freed off the pressure sensor so take it I can put some cleaning agent in there?

You read all sorts on the internet but the only way to clean a DPF is remove it and then use a proprietary cleaner, boiler de-scaler, etc.

And then fix the issue why it blocked up before you refit it....

Indeed, they never block up with a normal healthy engine.
