Title: Cleaning the compression chamber
Post by: stevemag on June 05, 2013, 09:33:13 AM

Must have got some lube in the chamber. While putting my b28 back together . What's the best way to clean it.
I'm thinking denatured alcohol on a paper towel wrapped around a dowel ?

That's how I do it. Works fine.

I try to stay away from any harsh chemicals when dealing with things with seals of different materials....

I really like Simple Green and Water to degrease the chamber and barrel, then blow out with air and swab with paper town on dowl rod...

Alcohol is fine.
