Thanks for the "I enjoy cleaning guns and tools" comments. My family doesn't understand why I spend an hour in the garage after a range session. My Dad, as well, taught me to keep tools cleaned and oiled. Every time He used even a screwdriver, he used an always available mineral oiled rag to simply wipe the blade before putting it on his well-organized tool wall.

Just what I was looking for. I’ve used mag polish didn’t think to use it on my revolver. So smart. Love it.

Informative video. Thanks

Thank you for you help.

Amazing video

Are you using a hollow ground screwdriver? I was worried about using a regular screwdriver to remove the cylinder, so I bought the S&W screwdriver set on Brownells.

Hello please can you tell me where I can buy the Mag & and Aluminum Mothers polish metal cleaning?thank you

I tried your method and it didn't work for me as well as it did for you. The method I use is a scotch-bright pad attached to a Dremel Mandrel. The scotch-bright pad literally scours all the dirt and carbon fouling off of the cylinder. After doing that I tried your method and polished the cylinder to a mirror finish. I love my stainless steel guns but I hate shooting them because I know I have to remove the burn rings from the cylinder.

Nobody seems to wear gloves when cleaning. I wonder about the lead and chemicals absorbing into the skin to the organs...?

Just

Along with take care of your tools & they will take care of you is a Place for everything and everything in it's place. Always return things back where you got them from. Two things I passed down to my three sons. Funny I do the same thing to my 686+ because the burn rings take away from the beauty of the gun.

Quick fix, if the ejector rod comes loose don't force anything just stick either a tooth pick or a wedge of wood under the front serrations of the ejector rod and pull the hammer back just a little bit and then hand rotate the cylinder counter clockwise and it will tighten it enough to work so you can swing the Cylinder out.
