Has anyone attempted to clean a pistol silencer's LCD by soaking it in Slip 2000 Carbon Killer? The LCD on my SWR HEMS 2 is completely covered in carbon and I'd like to clean it up as much as possible. Up until now I have been using CLP to clean it but repeated use has left behind substantial carbon build-up that CLP and elbow grease cannot remove.

I'd also be interested in hearing any alternatives to this idea as well.

Thanks.
