Cleaning a SF lance

[SI74]

Who has split and cleaned there lance on here? 
 
I split my lace today even tho it was working ok and saw that it could do with a good clean its even rusting in some parts.

What do you leave it in to clean the inside and remove what looks to be limescale.

I have done mine.

Limescale can be removed with Wonder Wheels. The gungy scum of Soap can be removed with a solvent, I soaked the filter in petrol for a few days.

I've done it too.  Used Viakal on lime scale and as above, soaked other bits in a bowl of petrol.  It worked a treat.

Have you completely disassembled it?  If you do, you'll need a vice and definitely need to use some thread lock fluid when reassembling it. 

This is a good guide   http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=84349&highlight=snowfoam

I followed the Autobrite guide detailed above.

Spoke to Mark the other day, he detailed my Abarth 595, and he does replacement filters if it's too far gone
