Hi All,
Can anyone share their ways of cleaning dies?
I have the following dies

.30-30 Lyman
.303 British Lyman
Also, any tips on maintaining them....
Thanks

sakofanI clean mine using brake cleaner, or gun cleaning solvent and a patch or two.
When finished, I spray a small amount of Rem-oil on them to keep them from rusting....sakofan..

<Carroll B>I clean the inside of my dies with "Ed's Red" bore cleaner and a Q-Tip. Ed's Red is made with transmission fluid as one of the ingredients so it lubes as it cleans. I clean mine because I load cast bullets and the lube gets inside the dies.

Feral_GozThanks Guys,
I think I'll head out to the Auto store and get some brake cleaner.
Thank you
