![]() My PC627 also has a matte finish but I basically just use the lead remover cloth on the cylinder face to be safe. If that seems to be abrasive for your finish, then a good alternative is the Birchwood Casey Lead Remover Cloth. Though to be honest on the cylinder faces to get them factory or near factory clean I scrub with a fine #000 synthetic steel wool pad from 3M available at Home Depot, Lowes, or Walmart. Recommend soaking the porting vents and cylinder flutes in Bore Tech C4 then scrub clean with a nylon brush. MPro7 or Bore Tech C4 Carbon Remover are both pretty solid products. Not only does carbon build up on the front of the cylinder, etc, there are also ports on the front of the barrel that now have "carbon feathers" above them that my regular rifle bore cleaners don't seem to have any effect on.Īsking the group what individuals might have found that removes the carbon without being abrasive enough to polish down the bead blast finish. One reason I am looking for something other than toothpaste is that while it worked well on the semi-gloss/satin finish of the 686, the Tracker has more of a bead blast finish I want to retain if possible. The number of gun cleaners that claim they'll remove carbon are so numerous I just thought I'd check in to see what others do to keep their stainless revolvers clean and looking good. Sold the 686 over a decade ago but recently bought a Taurus Tracker. Last one was a 686 and to remove all the soot from the end of the cylinder, top strap, and outside of the barrel I used a tooth brush and tooth paste (whatever flavor I had around at the time). It's been years since I've owned a stainless revolver that I plan on shooting a lot.
