Balistol and microfiber cloth and patches. Never brush the blued steel.

Ed's red and a little mag polish for stubborn carbon. A full cleaning only takes 15 mins or so.

Am I the only one still using Hoppes No 9? The stuff just works. I wet everything down blued or Stainless, then wait 15-20min. Then just wipe everything out with a Jag and patch. Then clean the forcing cone and firing pin area with a brass brush. Wipe it all down with a microfiber cloth and call it done.

If Im going deep show shine clean I’ll use a lead remover cloth to get the front of the cylinder looking new on stainless guns only.

Canadian Tire usually has it in the auto wax , chrome polish section, I really hate that section, I keep buying the newest best wax and cleaners for my truck, but no one will use it .

It's sometimes hard to get in Canada..but good

A basic Allen cleaning kit

On stainless revolver, Birchwood Casey lead removing cloth do magic to remove lead and carbon fouling in and out of the cylindre. A patch of 2"x2" will clean a whole revolver. Awesome product

Brass juice
Boretech C4 Carbon cleaner
brass brushes, picks, and bore brushes
small x-acto knife
birchwood casey lead cloths

It's a chore but given I'm shooting 25k+ year I don't have a choice. clean powder is a must.

Like Hickok45, I use mostly Ballistol. spray generously everywhere. brush in the bore and a bit chambers. Then patches down the bore and chambers. brush on and around forcing cone. wipe everywhere with big cotton patches or rags.

Same here all thou I also use Lead remover cloth in and around the cone area and cylinder to really get the last bit out

Take a toothbrush to the range in case you get debris under the ejector star and it decreases the clearance enough that the cylinder doesn't rotate freely. A brass or stainless brush is sometimes needed on the face of the cylinder to remove build up that causes the same lack of clearance and binds rotation.
