I heard all kinds of advice for rocksett.
Heat does nothing. Soak it in water. Boil it in water. Soak it in kroil. Put it in an ultrasonic to get water in there and break the ceramic. Tap it with a brass hammer to break the ceramic. Etc..etc..
Here is what I found when removing muzzle devices with properly applied rocksett: None of the above advise will hurt anything, however I do not believe any of it will help anything. Rocksett is a ceramic, it fills every bit of gap between the threaded barrel and muzzle device. Nothing gets in there.
What is MOST important is how you will hold the barrel, so that when you apply force, you will not damage anything. If you vise on the upper receiver, you risk significant damage to the barrel indexing pin, upper receiver, or both.
You should clamp on the barrel using barrel vice blocks (and risk spinning it and gouging the barrel a bit) or use a Geissele reaction rod. I really like the reaction rod for adding and removing muzzle devices. The only downside to the reaction rod, is that it uses the torque set on the barrel extension. This is generally around 125lbs. If you try and remove a muzzle device, and that requires more than 125lbs, you risk breaking this loose. The other downside is any muzzle device that requires that much torque, might risk rounding off on the flats. Another huge benefit of the reaction rod, is that it does not require removing of the handguard, or removing the barrel from the receiver.
I recently removed an AAC 3-prong hider 51T, and they make a special tool to remove and install these which allows for this torque to be applied without damage, because their flats are small and REALLY flimsy. That said, what I do is put the barrel on the reaction rod, and set my torque wrench to monitor the amount of force needed to break it loose. It took right at 85lbs to break the muzzle device free. Then it unscrewed quite easily. I would not be too concerned with galling.... just don't apply heat and go slow.
