    Magma Star lube removal

    I picked up a used magma star lubesizer. My question is what is the most effective way to remove the old lube from the press and dies? I cast and coat my own bullets so I won't need the lube.

    Thanks
    Dusty

    Hair dryer, heat gun, propane torch, use this gently. Leave the sizer mounted to your bench remove the die if any, place some old newspapers on the floor under sizer and heat it. Old lube will drip out quickly.

    Thanks for the replies! I take it that it will be messy.
