I came across an old article that Ed Haris wrote. https://www.camp22.org/black-powder-pages/handling-cap-and-ball-revolvers In the article he talks about cleaning cap and ball revolvers using waterless hand cleaner. After going to the range yesterday I thought I would give a try in the past Ed and his writings have never done me wrong. So tried it using GoJo hand cleaner. The stuff melts black powder on contact I gave everything a light brushing and wiped everything down the metal never looked better and it left everything with a light oil coating. The paper towels in the chambers worked really good as well. I will be keeping a close eye on my guns to make sure I don't get any rust, I also want to see if I have any issues with fouling the next time I go to the range.
