Seaclean does an excellent job for stainless parts that will fit in an ultrasonic cleaner, but DO NOT use it on blued parts. It will strip the blue off.

The biggest problem facing this country today is not the terrorist. It's the politician.

I put my cylinder(s) in the dishwasher. Just make sure I soak them in wd/Gt 85 as soon as the cycle is finished to get rid of the salt or they don't 'arf rust quick.
I tend to agree with airgunnut, those surfers do smell a bit don't they!

I am new to this but wondered what people's view's were of steam cleaners rather than soap & water. Here are a couple of hand held ones I found, do you think they would be a good idea?

I only use a steam cleaner to blast inside the trigger and hammer crevices, then just to get the pistol hot so it dries out fast.

Thanks, was only asking as my RFD has an expensive steam cleaner that he uses/recommends and when I saw those cheap hand held ones thought they may be worth considering.

Hi folks, this is my first post - actually the second but my reply to Jock's thread (Lemat & R&S) seems to have gone awol.
I use Muzzle-Magic to give the bore a clean between details & before slipping the gun, but its' expensive so I use concentrated screen wash (popular with the Yanks) & a small headed toothbrush when I get home. Follow this with a hot water rinse - wipe over then a light spray with Brunox, & a drop of gun oil on some moving parts completes the job. I remove nipples (unless I'm using the same gun again within a week) but rarely strip it down & when that becomes necessary there's not much in the way of gunk in the moving parts.
Another vote for hot water, washing-up liquid, and assorted toothbrushes.
Admittedly, with a stainless ROA and Triple 7, life is easier
