[QUOTE="WessonOil, post: 2398369, member: 25792"] I cleaned a few dozen milsurps of cosmoline, and my method was get a tarp, a gallon of kerosene, a bucket, and a toothbrush and bigger nylon bristle brush. Take it completely apart, pour kerosene in bucket, wash off cosmoline. Using the spray nozzle on a can of WD40 or equivalent will allow you to flush out bolt. Be sure and flush out bolt well, so you don't go fully auto. I miss the days of $99.00 SKS and $57.00 98/22 mausers, and will sometimes go off by myself with one just to breathe in the cosmoline. You'll never get all the cosmo out of the wood, even by putting it in the oven. It's easier just to learn to enjoy the smell and cosmolione oozing all over you on summer days. [/QUOTE]
