rtr Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Will cleaning my JP bolt carrier and bolt in my ultrasonic hurt anything? What cleaning solution and for how long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3-Gun Sweden Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I tried it, in tap water. Not much happened at all in terms of cleaning so need advice on what to add. Gun shoots fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPatterson Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I doubt it would hurt anything. I would use a recommended cleaner or maybe some lemi shine in water or simple green. For best results I would take the bolt out of the carrier. I may look into this for the top end of my pistols. DO NO clean things aluminum with simple green as it can remove anodizing. Please don't ask how I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastarget Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Hornday ultrasonic cleaning solution or the solution from L&R (they make most of the good Ultrasonics) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Anderson Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I used to do that right up until the rifle quit working. Found I was getting a ton of sludge in behind the ejector. Got to try pulling it and fixing it in my hotel room at Arizona Charlies without the right tools. Not a fun experience. When I finally got the ejector out it was basically a solid plug of gunk behind it. I don't ultrasonic anything any more unless it's completely disassembled.
