Claim 1:
2. A method for cleaning firearm suppressors, the method comprising:
a) providing a used suppressor having an internal cavity with a fouling material deposited on a first surface of the internal cavity, and the used suppressor also having an exterior surface;
b) providing a cleaning solution;
c) providing an ultra-sonic probe;
d) introducing the cleaning solution into the internal cavity of the used suppressor;
e) positioning the ultra-sonic probe, such that it does not contact any inner surfaces of the suppressor during operation;
f) contacting at least part of the ultra-sonic probe with the cleaning solution that is introduced inside the internal cavity of the used suppressor;
g) operating the ultra-sonic probe;
h) removing at least part of the fouling material from the first surface of the internal cavity of the used suppressor;
i) draining the cleaning solution from the used suppressor; and
wherein, the cleaning solution does not oxidize metals in the fouling material; and wherein, the cleaning solution comprises an aqueous solution containing linear, C12, secondary alcohol alkoxylate, polyoxyethylene (4) sorbitan monolaurate, octyldimethylamine oxide, and cocoamidopropyl dimethylamine oxide.
