    Default How do I get dirt out my glock's grip?

    I've taken notice to some build up of dirt/whatever on my grip in the cracks. What can I use to get it out? A toothbrush with water? or whats the best thing to do?

    It's a Glock. Use a pressure washer if you like.

    Ha! I was gonna recommend the dishwasher for that piece of Tupperware...


    Seriously, I'd use an old toothbrush and some water with mild detergent.

    That dirt is most likely skin oil, skin cells and some added funkiness for flavor. That shit comes right out with a regular toothbrush, no prob. If you look closely you will notice something similar collecting in reliefs cut into the slide for traction. (Unless you are one of those slide stop using guys...)

    That goo does not really hurt much, unless it sits on metal for an extended period of time, the it could cause some pitting.

    Old toothbrush and Simple Green. Don't have that? Any gentle cleaning compound, even bar soap.

    I've gotten mud and such in the grooves before. I stripped the parts out of the frame and scrubbed it in the sink with some dish soap and a tooth brush. Worked perfectly and got all the crud off/out. Just make sure to dry it well before putting everything back in place.
