Rifle Scopes New BO's, how to get grease off?

Re: New BO's, how to get grease off?

Funny, I just mounted two sets of new BO rings today and had to deal with the preservative coating. I used alcohol, a rag, and a small amount of elbow grease.
 
Re: New BO's, how to get grease off?

I use a degreaser, then go over them with alcohol while using latex gloves so I don't get the oils from my hands on them. I also go over the areas of the scope that will contact the rings with the alcohol.

Cheers

I'm OCD hard man. Still waiting for my skins to come back from being dipped. Once I have everything in place, gonna savor the last few steps. Feels like I'm nearing the end of a journey...
