    Nickel or copper based antisiezes have a lot more thickness to them than most lithium soap greases. Might as well just use a bog standard nlgi2 wheel bearing grease... Most suppressors are designed that they work up tight rather than loose (a slight twist on the baffle holes and muzzle break component). Often times just shooting them is enough to tighten the buggers to the point you can't get them apart by hand.

    The only can I've ever had to clean has been on .22's as an aside, for some reason those are generally really mucky in comparison to bigger calibers. I'm sure some pro culler working out of a helo will be along shortly to correct me there but all of the cans I currently own are sealed and none of them have ever been cleaned (just repaired or replaced when the corrosion killed them).
