Cleaning Yugo M48 of Cosmoline

[Mauserman]

I've seen multiple ways of removing cosmoline from Mauser rifles i e Kerosine, gasoline, mineral spirits, Simple Green and hot water etc. I just saw a video on YouTube where a guy used a a heat gun another used his wife's hair dryer. Has anyone used a heat gun to remove cosmoline?


Here's his video.
