How to Clean Your Gun With Ultrasonic Gun Cleaner

Your gun can achieve its cleanest state with the use of an ultrasonic gun cleaner and the right solution. If you know anything about guns then you know that you need to clean your firearm thoroughly. In between the swabs and brushes that you use, there is still a lot more that a gun cleaner can do for you. It really depends on the type of solution you use as to the type of results you get. Take note that gun cleaning solutions can be very flammable, so be very cautious when working with them. Here is an example of the type of cleaning solution you can use along with the cleaner to keep your guns in good working order.
There are some things you will need before you start using this type of cleaner for your guns. You will need things like ammonia, kerosene, denatured alcohol, Murphy’s oil soap, a spoon (wooden), and a measuring cup. Take a look at how much liquid your ultrasonic gun cleaner can hold. Next, put the parts of your gun in the cleaner. Add water measured to the right amount and also keep track of the liquid you add to your machine. Stop when you have the water level below the lip of the machine. From here, you can tell how much solution you will need to clean your gun parts. What you are aiming for is the right measurements so the solution does not overflow when you add the parts of your gun into the cleaner.

When you mix the ingredients for your ultrasonic gun cleaner, you are looking for 15% of ammonia, 15% of Murphy’s oil soap, 30% denatured alcohol and 40% of kerosene. Depending on the liquid you put in your cleaner, you can vary the amounts but you need to follow the percentages closely. That is where you make use of the measuring cup so you have a good guide to the amounts of every ingredient you mix in. You want a solution that works to clean your gun and not ruin it afterwards.

Mix these ingredients together using the wooden spoon. The key to getting the right ultrasonic gun cleaner solution is to stir slowly. When you stir the mixture too aggressively, you can make a mess with splashing the mixture. When you are all done with this, you can put the solution in the machine and put your gun parts in. It is also good to follow the right amount of time for immersing and ultrasonic blasting your gun parts. You can damage your gun if you leave it in the cleaner and the solution for too long but if you take it out too early, you will not get it clean enough. If you want to keep your guns in good working order then make sure to use a good solution and clean them on a regular basis.
