Hello everyone. New to the website and new to black powder firearms. Bought a CVA Optima V2 and Pietta 1858. Just got a few questions regarding cleaning.
With Black Powder residue, as simple as hot water and soap can clean it up correct?
What about copper, plastic [Sabots], and lead? What good products will remove those three? I'm assuming in terms of harshness, it would be Plastic solvents then lead then copper?
I've bought Powerbelt AeroLite, does anyone have any experience with them here? How are they to clean?
Any other cleaning tips is appreciated.
