    Cleaning stainless pins

    Who here cleans their stainless pins?
    Just did mine with simple Green and hot water. Wow what a difference!

    I rinse them out. There is always cleaning solution there so I just add water and drain it. Makes sense.

    Its not like the gunk magically disappears. My wife thinks vacuum cleaners are an infinite black hole for dirt.

      Rinse, Repeat

      The pins get a good rinse along with the brass in this Franklin Separator. They look bright and shiny to me with no extra cleaning.

        I found that Dillon Case lube was a mother to get off my 223 brass.

        Switching to PEG75 to see if it works as well as a lube and has a better outlook for removal.

          The pins get cleaned with the brass...

          One thing I do is rinse everything in RO/DI water after a good flush with the waste water.
          It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

            PEG is everywhere. Careful your PEG doesn't do any higher math. PEG3350 is Miralax. Also the major constituent in the Super Colon Blow stuff they give you for colonoscopy prep. Now you can't think of it without flashing on the SNL Skit by the title above.
            When purified, PEG3350 is the propellant polymer in Peacekeeper third stage rocket motors and older Trident D-5 third stage motors.
