olyinaz's concern is the correct concern to have with disposing these chemicals. DO dispose of these hazardous materials correctly. Remember: Certain oils and chemicals can do a number on the environment, as well as pose the small risk of fire.

Check with your local dump, your trash pickup company, and city to ensure you are not in violation of waste disposal laws, and minimize the risk of fire.

The good wife lets me buy guns on a pretty regular basis, but I would not want to run an old mil stock through her dishwasher!

I've had good luck w/ 5gal bucket of water, regular laundry detergent, and a scrub brush. Two or three sessions and the stocks I've cleaned up look fine.

Plunk the stock in and start scrubin'. Swap ends and do it some more.

Repeat as many times as necessary.
