prreed10 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Anyone have any tips for cleaning their comps? Took my SJC Titan off after this past weekends match. Lots of carbon buildup - some was starting to extend into the bore. I figure it was contributing to some inaccuracy issues I've been having. Soaked it in Pro M7 for 2 days and went to work scraping and even used a drill with a brush. I've got about 90% of it off. Any tips or should I just clean it more often?

elynch2007 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 a mixature of 50% Hydrogen peroxide and 50% white vinger. Soak for 1 mintute, clean and repeat. It will discolor bluing but works great on stainless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assaulter Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I just scrape the big chunks off a couple times a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRider Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Ballistol works pretty good at softening up carbon, I have soaked bolts in it and it made them esier to clean. Hurley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 a mixature of 50% Hydrogen peroxide and 50% white vinger. Soak for 1 mintute, clean and repeat. It will discolor bluing but works great on stainless. I've had this work for lead buildup but not carbon. Years ago I put a hardchromed comp into the mixture and got an emergency call. By the time I got back (a day or two later) the comp was ruined. It will eat up carbon steel. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
