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😊
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?
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
Just a few ounces of full strength CLR in a ziplock sandwich baggie with the suppressor parts. Drop that into your heated sonic cleaner water for a 10 minute cycle. So far has worked for my titanium suppressor cleaning needs.
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.
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!
No sir wrong simple green you want the purple one! Or you can so ultrasonic cleaner soap... You want distilled water along with soap and cleaner Another thing is that you want to soak it down with CLP before you clean it to help break down the carbon for 1 - 2 hours...
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.
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.
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.
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.
That's very interesting Patrick and thanks for the tips. First time I cleaned my supressor parts in the sonic cleaner I used CLR. Every thing came out shinny new. But did some research on CLR and found mixed reviews about it eating away stainless steel. If you could share, what was the ratio of Ballistol to water you use?
You trashed this method with 2 thumbs down. Your cleaner shows 50 degrees celsius (122°F). Simple Green DEGRADES & DECOMPOSES at 42°C (109°F) according to it's Data Sheet. NEVER use Simple Green at OVER 104°f (40°C) for continuous use!
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... ruclips.net/video/6UxhSAOlLMM/видео.html

No it won't ! That's utter stupidity
@@caldwell5078 there always a asshole in the crowd just trying to help out and you just have to call me a dumbass people kill me.🤣🤣🤣🤣
NASA did a study and doesn't agree. They use plastic bags.

I have had really good success with CLR instead of simple green, same time and temp, same zip lock method, even same ultrasonic cleaner.
I had the same experience on my Dead Air Mask. Look forward to future tests.
Can you tell me what make and year that Timex is? Automatic, solar, or quartz? Gorgeous!
Still watching the vid...

The new way of cleaning just as red dots have become our new sites. Ultrasonic is the new cleaning.😊😊
Many cleaners dont clean undiluted. Many solutions are designed to clean better when some water is added.
Very well done video. Thanks.

Noticed you didn't turn the heat on
Hello.. say more plz
I'm curious how all this works
@@erwinvillalva4214must push the on button for the heat just like he ousted the on button for the ultrasonic

Hour vs 24hrs. Ultra Sonic Cleaners are fairly inexpensive these days and easy to use.
I feel you, took 303 days to get approved for my sparrow 22 can

@@RickHunter811 10% Ballistol and 90% water is recommended for ultrasonic cleaners.
@@patrickweaver1105all in a bag? Inside the ultrasonic basket with water? Sorry I’m new to this lol
@@Hvacnc Yup

READ THE DATA SHEET!!!! YOU USED 122°f (50°C) - which is OVER the temp at which Simple Green loses its cleaning power!
Wear gloves

Welding anti-spatter spray is a good option too.
Use a slotted spoon
Hey hey!! Good to see ya!!!
You too!!
Breakthrough suppressor cleaner 1 part to 5parts water in the ultrasonic gets anything looking brand new... simplegreen didnt so shit
mason jars man....
