Ok, so I recently purchased a Yugo SKS 59/66. It came packed in cosmoline and I cleaned it up damn nice if i say so my self. So I used gun scrubber on all the metal parts. Let that evaporate and cleaned the pieces with a toothbrush. I then oiled the gun with hoppes 9. I used goo-gone on the gun as well. It really helped and didnt leave a terrible odor like kerosene. I cleaned the stock the best I could with goo-gone, and it looks to be pretty damn clean. However, I havent shot it yet. What are the chances that the cosmo is going to bleed through the stock. I mean, it wasnt fully drenched in the stuff like some of them come. It was rather lightly covered. So should I shoot it first to see if it bleeds out. Or should i steam clean it or bake the stock in the sun/car to see if i can get more out? Im not trying to start a big thread on cosmo cleaning, because Im sure its been dont before, and I dont want to start big pointless threads that take up spaces. I just want to know what to expect. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
