[QUOTE="RetiredTater, post: 2800153, member: 32190"] So the ultrasonic cleaner may be a Christmas present for myself, just can't bring myself to spend that on myself this late in the year. I looked on Google, YouTube and a few other forums and came across some do it yourself high speed supersonic cleaners. (not true ultrasonic because not near that high in frequency.) So I got an idea. I took a large metal coffee can, and a small plastic basket and set it inside. Took my pistol and her slides and put them in the basket. Made a light solution with simple green and hot hot water. Put the lid on on the can and set my tumbler on the top, threw in some media and brass, flipped the switch and abruptly left the garage. The sound was deafening with it on the concrete. Came back in 15 minutesnutes and removed the slides, dried with some compressed sensor cleaner (really dry really clean air) from work, oiled well, used more sensor cleaner in the slide cavitiess to where it was just very light lube, and lubed the rest to specs. Had not seen them that clean in a long time. It may not be ultrasonic but dang the grime and filth came out of places I can't get normally. Now reloading some ammo and going to test them both out with reloads. Sent from my LGUS990 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
