I use 1 part Simple Green to 4 parts water. It works well on the delicate animation parts I work on and it doesn?t hurt them a bit. Use at 145 degrees. 0 -
We just used Stoddard solvent/mineral spirits. Keep the tank clean/free of accumulated grit in the bottom. Wrapped in a cloth sacks can help parts not rubbed against each other - depends on your finish 0 -
Trying to clean up an old 10/22 receiver and trigger group.
wish to save the finish on the parts. This is a very dirty one.0 -
You DO NOT want anything touching thew tank, suspend the parts for the best results... 0 -
Have lyman 6000 unit. Solution I have states not to use on aluminum.
Will the simple green 1 to 4 remove the finish? Thanks gishaw0 -
A spray can of Remoil and a nylon cleaning brush will do the job nicely. I clean a lot of guns at work and that's what I use for a 10/22 trigger group and it will not harm the finish. 0 -
An ultrasonic cleaner can vibrate the dye out of anodized aluminum parts. The solution you use has little to do with it- it's the ultrasonic action. 0 -
Thanks Bill, and all who provided information.
Have a Merry Christmas.0
