I clean mine out with CLP every time I shoot it. I don’t give it a chance to accumulate. This device has more than 1000 rounds through it, mostly junk Tula and wolf. Not a spec of carbon.

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone. I'm going to try using clp, and possibly a piece of plastic to help scrape some of the carbon off.
When I clean, I do leave a thin layer of CLP behind. I typically wipe everything down with a wet patch, and then add a small drop to friction areas. I do the same for my brakes too. Many thousands of rounds through my AK and FAL, with not a spec of carbon on them.
For the BCG, I use a heated sonic cleaner for about 30 minutes. The carbon just falls away. Best $100 I’ve spent on cleaning gear.
