Spray 'em with Pam ! You know, non-stick ! 😉 I know I've had to clean 'em, and the carbon really bakes on ! I definitely like the soda blaster idea ! Another helpful hint from TSTService ! 😁🕶️🇺🇲

This method is by far the quickest way to remove thick, baked carbon from baffles... period. Took me 15min to clean titanium baffles. No soaking, scrubbing or waiting. Thank you much for the video!

I dint remember what a blast cabinet costs from harbor freight but as a gunsmith I use mine quite often. I have aluminum oxide as a strong abrasive to completely remove a finish before I re-coat the slide, frame or entire gun, it also works great for cleaning out pitted rust spots in a gun. For baffles I'd use the softer crushed walnrt hulls (like most people including myself use in rotary tumblers to clean brass for reloading. CWH works great for alot of things like flash rust and can add an interesting looking texture to some finishes but it's great for cleaning and most of the crushed hulls arent going to fill up every little crevice in the gun. You can also use baking soda and other types of media in you blaster. It's all inside a metal box with a large lexan window and it's all sealed with a air evac port in it the back. It saves alot of media because it cycles by siphoning the media from the bottom of the box via a steel tube. I've cleaned alot of guns down to bare steel so I can gunkote them and the aluminum oxide helps to give the metal a fine etch to help cover scratches in the steel and it helps alot when it comes to the adhesion of the gun-kote or any type of spray and cure finish. Worth the investment if its something you do regularly. Also, I've cleaned up car parts with it too so it's not just for gun work.

Carbon cleaning is very simple, it doesn't require scrubbing or powder blasting, abrasives or chemicals. Pick up a bottle of lignite activated water (LAW water) AKA Willards Water. Boil it lightly for an hour or two and the carbon will just simply disappear as it's broken down, it's not that expensive and you don't have to use very much, just follow the directions on the bottle, warm it up, toss your parts in, and forget it for an hour or two.

Dustin “Good to go to start sprayin’ “ Ellermann!!

That’s the best I could come up with today… but hey! Nice tip Ellermann!

I found another cap to fit on top of my hopper and experimented with poking pin holes in it to help it to feed better and the more I poked holes the better it worked. Pass it on.

I'm going this week to get a cheap blaster kit. My rugged obsidian 9 is so dirty I'm getting carbon obstruction and accuracy is suffering..

Probably can’t use this method with the Surefire Ryder 22A. As it has red anodized aluminum baffles. I actually haven’t found any way that you can clean it without damaging the finish. My 3 ounce can now weighs 4 ounces!

Watching this video sadly from California😢😬

How much psi did you need on the compressor?

If you notice a 22 caliber bullet will fit inside the sand blaster barrel just be careful
