Anyone ever use a Dremel to clean carbon from firearms? Nothing so abrasive as to mar or shave surfaces. Thinking of AR bolt near the extractor and such. If so, what attachments did/would you use?
No, nothing good can come of it.Anyone ever use a Dremel to clean carbon from firearms?
That was more in line of what I was thinking as far as using softer Dremel attachments. Nothing abrasive but instead, polishing brushes etc.Dremel no, tossing a soft bore brush in a drill, yes.

That’s rather the point - polishing is removing a tiny bit of metal. I’ve polished gun parts, like feed ramps, which is deliberate and planned. I used a dremel with a polishing wheel.That was more in line of what I was thinking as far as using softer Dremel attachments. Nothing abrasive but instead, polishing brushes etc.
If you have a leaded barrel, you can push bronze wool down the barrel with a jag. It will clean the lead out like magic and the bronze wool won't scratch your barrel.If you’ve got really bad caked on gunk, use more solvent. Step up to a bronze brush.
