Use a wood, aluminum or brass cleaning rod (not steel), a brass
bristle brush and patches appropriate to your revolver's caliber to
clean it. Use a good quality cleaning solution to swab the bore
and each cylinder. While swabbing the bore always brush all the
way through the bore; never try to reverse direction while the
brush is actually in the barrel or chamber. After swabbing, run
clean patches through the bore and chambers until they come out
clean. Then completely, but lightly, oil the entire revolver. Use a
good quality brass polish on the backstrap and triggerguard (if
made of brass). The brass parts are solid brass and, as such, will
tarnish, reflecting their good quality. It is easily removed with any
good quality brass polish.
