Thanks Mr. Tom Sir. Do you know what the base fluid is?

I use Simple Green. It works great. Won't hurt your sonic cleaner or gun.

Mr. Dean Sir, I'm not sure but the bottle says it contains Potassium Silicate (Cas# 1312-76-1) and Triethanolamine (Cas# 102-7106) and in case you get thirsty, it says don't drink it. Before I used Turbo Sonic I used Dawn on a gun and it spotted the case colors. I'm glad the gun belonged to a friend. I don't know if it was the Dawn or the chemicals in our water, or a combination of the two. Turbo Sonic has always done a great job. I used it on George Purtells C grade, over 100 hours total, and it did what I thought was impossible. I don't know how to describe the condition of George's gun when he first got it. But it's a very beautiful gun now. Maybe George will comment. Cheers, Tom

Citric acid works fine with brass but I wouldn't dream of using it on steel.

I have a gunsmith friend that swears Simple Green etches steel. I do not know what concentration he used, however. He placed a long, blued part (magazine tube) partially in and partially out of the Simple Green solution in his ultrasonic tank. It left a permanent ring in the finish at the surface level.
I use Dawn and water myself in my tank and it doesn't seem to do visible harm. Per an earlier thread here, I don't put loaded springs in the tank. |
