Nothing else.

I'm not sure what your point is. Are you saying that the Sokoff
product won't work?

I'm saying you cannot (easily) dissolve Carbon in any concoction of
chemicals. Removal must be mechanical.

If I understand the product correctly, it doesn't dissolve the carbon
pre se. It breaks down the bond between the metal and carbon/grease so
it can be rinsed away. Based on the widespread availability of the
product on the web, I'm assuming it works.

I'm gonna try a plastic bag of ammonia and see what happens.

Happy Holidays!
