Was hoping somebody could advise as to a good method or product to get carb body components cleaned up. Home remedies? Store bought dips?

I can tell you that I've tried some the store bought dips in the gallon can and they have not worked very well. A can of gumout has better cleaning power.
I use gumout on the bodies and then bead blast.

What Bob said! I made a baking soda blaster just like the one on that guy's page and it made the parts look *almost* new again. Great tip!
