Big Norm,

The kerosene seems to work pretty good on the old military rifles with only a small amount of finish usually. I MIGHT use some kerosene on a Luger, but I don't think I would leave it for a long time. If you can get Safety Kleen solvent, it works great and does not harm the finish. The only problem is that you need to know someone that has the cleaning equipment and "borrow" some from them. The Safety Kleen guy probably would not sell a small amount.
