    Brake cleaner is your friend

    Brake cleaner works wonders with cosmoline. Also, a little nylon brush after a good soak down.

    I bought a mosin once that I had to "bleed" the cosmoline out of. It was a pain. Letting the wood set out in the sun in a black plastic bag helped get a lot out of the pores of the wood.

    I throw the wood in the boiling water for a few minutes and it takes 90% out.

    Most of the demilling is done. Just need to figure out a way to press off the gas block. The barrel fins are in the way.

    I cold blued the receiver and it matches well. Didn't have anything to do will waiting on barrel to return so I did this little mockup.
