When I get home from the range after using my stainless Ruger OA, I normally throw the cylinder, nipples and rammer assembly into my ultrasonic tank, adding a soupson of Seaclean2 into the water and giving everything a blast for 5 minutes or so.

It always brings everything up to "As new" condition. but, today, I'd taken my blued Pietta .36 out and didn't even think about it but put the parts into the cleaner.

I now have a shiny, silver cylinder and small parts to fit into the blued frame.
