Soak the rag good and put some umf into it. May take a splashing on the threads, let it soak a minute or two then wipe it out. But yea rubbing alcohol will break most petroleum distillates down pretty easily.spudzooka98 wrote:that is what i thought soda but will rubbing alcohol help the threads on the gun so the cap wont get stuck
Thanks for the laugh...flashskate13 wrote:Lol white sprite in the uk is rubbing alcohol
You might consider using starting fluid. It is common, cheap, and doesn't have as much byproduct as its function is to burn. After a while a greasy layer will build up. To get rid of it I would light it on fire, don't stare in the chamber (you probably will), and quickly wave the launcher around to put it out. To long and the plastic would start to melt.
