Best way to clean my Surefire C2 Centurian?

[Gordov2]

Looking for the best way to fully clean my old Surefire C2?
Also, where to find O-rings for same?
I plan on using Nyogel to lube after cleaning.
Please advise.

Hello!
Perhaps you can elaborate what you mean by 'fully clean'? Images you can share?

Hopefully someone will soon give you a direction regarding oring replacement.

I believe if you contact SF customer service they might send o-ring replacements.
If your talking about dirt (oxidation) on threads, try a squirt of silicone spray, toothbrush and rags. Then add your fresh Nyogel

If I ever get shmutz on gear, I use some isopropyl alcohol, an old toothbrush and some paper towels.

Waterproof lights I button up and scrub in the sink with dish soap and a toothbrush. Cleaned the threads with a rag and solvent, then re-lube.

I admit, I'd be hesitant to do that even with actual Dive lights.

If you have access to an ultrasonic cleaner that will get everything out. If not a toothbrush with some mild dish soap takes care of most of it. I clean the threads and O ring seats with rubbing alcohol before the soap to help remove any silicone lubricants that may resist the soap.
Reassemble and re- lube and your done.

I usually just run the light under cool water from the sink and use dawn dish soap. Ive done this with surefire, hds and streamlight and have never had a problem.

Anything even mildly waterproof is completely safe. Not dunking them in a bucket, just under the faucet. Sometimes you don't have much choice.
