Pip -12 GA cleaning is best FROM the chamber if possible - with Hoppes #9 or WD 40 on a scrunched-up or folded facial tissue and any rod, just as long as it is not heavy fouling it will just push out. If it is heavy - a jag or turks-head on a 12GA sized rod is called for ... with a Hoppes 'Tornado' s/s "brush" used for extreme plastic and lead fouling.
Not cleaning a shottie can increase felt recoil, but generally they far less critical than pistols, as most now have crome bores and are a breeze to clean( not so with early Browning A5 autos, as I know to my cost!).

Glad you bought one...welcome to the club !
