Do Not use plastic bags guy's!! Glass is the way to go because plastic will block 30% or more of your Sonic waves it will still work but glass is a lot better try it out great video😊

The new way of cleaning just as red dots have become our new sites. Ultrasonic is the new cleaning.😊😊

I have had really good success with CLR instead of simple green, same time and temp, same zip lock method, even same ultrasonic cleaner.

Thanks for this video. I've never owned a suppressor before, and I'm looking up how to clean them. The Rugged Obsidian 9 owner's manual says to run it for an hour in the ultrasonic machine and that it's okay if a bit of residue remains on it. So I guess that might be okay?

I had the same experience on my Dead Air Mask. Look forward to future tests.

To all for the method I've used, use a carbon solvent, (I use Hoppe's #9) and dissamble. Soak all parts overnight in whatever solvent you use. Some picking, scraping of carbon may be necessary after that. If you soak too long (in Hoppe's anyway) it will start to "eat" the metal. Rinse with water, and imerse in simple green. Turn up the heat! I set mine to 130 degrees. Depending on all factors, it may take some time. My Hornady cleaner has a max time of 30 min. After each session I checkall parts. As they become clean, I remove them, and set the timer again. I've never spend more than two hrs. for all parts to look like new to this point. Hope this helps everyone!

It took me around 20 months to get my vector and Blackhawk. Bought them online and had them shipped to a local gun store and right before I went to start the paperwork and they went out of business. It was just over a year and another gun store called me to tell me they have them and started the paperwork. Thanks for the video

I use simple green if I have it on small engine carbs I don't bag anything but use small glass jar for the tiny parts, I also use dawn dish detergent and have had good luck with that too . I think your parts might have come clean if you diluted your smple green 50/50 with water. Running at 60 Celsius usually 30 minutes will do fine. Also bunching parts together isn't a good practice, in your case you could suspend your items so the sonic waves can hit from all directions. Its all about trying different procedures. Heat ,water and separation of parts might be your answer.

Very well done video. Thanks.

Many cleaners dont clean undiluted. Many solutions are designed to clean better when some water is added.

Can you tell me what make and year that Timex is? Automatic, solar, or quartz? Gorgeous! Still watching the vid...

Have you, or could you, measure the actual Wattage of your ultrasonic cleaner. My cleaner is listed as 180 watts for the ultrasonic transducers. When I measure it with a Kill-a-Watt meter using only the ultrasonic function of the cleaner, it measures between 110 and 135 watts. I would be interested in knowing what your model is rated as and the actual power consumption. You posted a great video and I appreciate the information you provided.

I use about a 10% solution of Simple Green and water in my ultrasonic cleaner (same as what's in video). Solution temp is 60 dgrees C which is 140 F. Baffles are titanium and come out extremely clean after 20 minutes. Don't use an undiluted solution unless directions tell you to do so. Simple Green works best in a water solution.

Apple cider vinegar & Hydrogen peroxide mixed half & half, in a well vented area, parts soaked over night works wonderful. If really carboned up you made need a second soaking. No Ultrasonic needed.

I feel you, took 303 days to get approved for my sparrow 22 can

Noticed you didn't turn the heat on

Don't use pure Simple Green. It's a concentrated degreaser surfactant. A 90% water and 10% Simple Green mix is plenty for cleaning. You can use a bit more but too much and it becomes less effective. Simple Green will not remove lead fouling. I prefer Ballistol and water since I have it around for my black powder guns and it will remove lead. Wear nitrile gloves lead isn't good for you.

Hey hey!! Good to see ya!!!

Wear gloves

CRC 05361 Silaramic Brake System Grease...get some of that, you can thank me later. 😉 Put a very light coat of the grease on the baffles before using the suppressor, and the carbon will wipe right off. I've got a video here that shows how it works... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bLuom7ZytNKwfYE.html
