If your baffles are stainless steel, use a wet tumbler, stainless steel pins, a drop of Dawn and water.

CoffeeFreak used Dub Wheel cleaner, 4 oz plastic non-abrasive media beads and a wet tumbler for aluminum baffles. He let the tumbler run for 2 hours. Left over Dub is reused for about 15 times. The aluminum baffles are rinsed in water and wiped with petroleum jelly.

Not how I do it BUT sounds good :). The jelly is a REAL big help keeping things quiet PLUS it coats parts making then easier to clean next time. I spray all inside parts, plus tube, with SUPER QCG, E-bay
