Dishwasher m14 warning.

Actually, washing a really bad stock in the DW does work, provided you do NOT use the drying cycle.

You then have to wait a couple weeks for the wood to normalize before trying to refinish it, but it does get the oil, grease and grime out of the pores - big time.

Note, I said STOCK - as in wood stock devoid of metal.
 
Ingenious, certainly speeds up the natural cleaning processs -of leaving it on the back deck to the random rainstorm & dishsoap down the bore to do its job.
 
I learned a valuable lesson using brake parts cleaner to get cosmoline off the stock of a SKS.
Hint: it works WAY too well.

Then promptly re-learned how to sand, stain and lacquer a wooden stock...
 
I was trying to polish the same brand and got almost the same result,
Using aluminium polish for rims from Walmart.
However works great on my Springfield M1A.


Norinco no matter what steel is no matter forged or case .

A 100% Garbage

SO, just to get this straight, you used abrasive polish on a parkerized surface and the gun is the problem? OK. Well, at least the post is in the right place.
 
I have done some stupid things, as I'm sure all of us have. Just glad my stupidity didn't become a 700 plus post necrothread of shame.

People seem to want to add their own, um, er...silliness (?) to the thread too. I've actually never seen anyone in any forum, anywhere, dig up a necrothread to pronounce to the world that they accidentally polished he finish off their gun - I mean at least the first guy got it partly right for using hot water to strip cosmo, the last guy ? WTF is that.
