Followed your method for cleaning my Rugged Occulus 22LR suppressor. Had approx 500-600 rounds thru it and it came out awesome! Easiest I've ever had to clean my suppressor. Thanks for posting!
Thank you Leroy... I just got my Banish 22 about 2 months ago. Finally got around to using it. I bought some CLR and Simple Green to use in the sonic bath. It's bathing in Simple Green currently, and will use the CLR next time. Bought them both before I saw your video. I put mine in a ziploc also. Thanks again brother! Stay safe!
@@1776concernedcitizen UPDATE: The Simple Green cleaned the baffles, but still had powder residue on them. I poured out the SG, and poured some CLR in the Ziploc. Came out looking like they had never been used. Sparkling clean!
I just used this method with the baffles of an extremely nasty Dead Air Mask HD that had been sitting for months. It was leaking through my baggie but I used a glass jar of CLR in the water instead. I let them sit in the jar of CLR in the water as it heated up. They came out like factory new after 5 minutes. Awesome method if you have stainless steel baffles.
Do you use tap water or distilled? Also i think i bought the same exact cleaner looks like yours but the brand on Amazon says its a vevor. Is yours still working or has it wore out? Just wondering how long the cheapos last
Not sure about your cleaner, but my ultrasonic cleaner is very similar but a few quarts bigger. The directions say to make sure you fill to the line just below the cover every time you use it to avoid damaging it. You may want more liquid in it next time?
What would you recommend cleaning a .22 compensator with? Mine is so filthy after one session that I can’t get it clean. I soaked it, scrubbed it, yelled at it… still dirty. Bought a cleaner similar to yours, but not sure what to use with it
I won't be answering that question as it will definitely be criticized. I would say that environmental risks are considered but cannot be completely mitigated.
@@1776concernedcitizen I understand. I just did a search and our county has a collection facility for cleaning solvents, thinners and ‘hobby chemicals’ like this. It’s free for residents so if I go this route I will take it there.
@@FishKepro you research and call around too when you flick a booger out your car window? You check with EPA DEA and CIA before flicking it or do you have 1 OZ of testicular fortitude left? 😅 thank you to the man who made this video
@@jcrow530not just cleaning solution - it has dissolved lead in it which will enter the water stream if you dump it down the drain or pour it in the backyard.
Thank you for the video. In the process of cleaning my baffles now. Do you do 50-50 water and clr or just straight clr? Really like the bag idea makes things so much easier.
@John 14:6 mine was caked. I don't know how many rounds but up past 2000. So I did multiple runs with 100% clr. Now that I have the untra sonic cleaner, I will be cleaning more often. But it is now 100% clean and ready for action.
If you smear the baffles with Silaramic brake system grease before you reassemble or on a new can’ the carbon and lead deposits wipe off easily. The Silaramic is rated for 3000 degrees so it won’t burn off. It works great.
@TacticalBuffoonary you are right. Found this trick a while back and has saved me a ton of time cleaning. I tend to put a little more ceremic grease on the lower parts where it tends to build up harder to remove carbon. The carbon sticks to the grease and wipes right off leaving the baffles shinny new.
It's CLR cleaner in a cheap Chinese made cleaner. The bag just keeps me from wasting too much cleaner. The water in the ultrasonic cleaner stays clean so I don't have to clean it out.
