PLUS If I read it right, it's (or you can get it in) Stainless steel now so you can make your own "Dip" to clean it. They say that stuff will de-gunk powder/lead build up in a heart beat. BUT will eat Aluminum so fast you can't even blink but is safe on SS. OH the "Dip" is equal parts of Peroxide and White Vinegar. It makes some kind of acid.
