What to clean new dies with?

[Guest]

What do I use to clean a new set of dies to remove the lub they are coated with for shipping? Thanks for your input.

I use Hoppes No. 9 followed by brake cleaner. Gives me nice, shiny dies ready to go to work.

After cleaning, as per Dr.Mike, pre-lube your FL die. That will make your first case size much easier.Rick.

Brake-cleaner spray or carb-cleaner spray works well. Also for gun actions etc. Just do not get it on the wood or even plastic stock/grips.
