What do you think of using an old crock pot to clean some gun parts?
I'm thinking of using an old, small crock pot that I have to submerse some parts (trigger assembly, bolt assembly, etc.) off an old shotgun that haven't been cleaned in years and have some caked on grease. After complete disassembly, I'm thinking if I put the crock pot on low, fill it with some liquid (maybe Dawn detergent, Simple Green or maybe carburetor cleaner(?)) and let the parts soak for maybe 12-24 hours? After that, I'll scrub them with an old toothbrush, lube and reassemble.
What do you think?
