About any solvent will work well.
Hoppe's, G96, M-Pro, and CLP have worked well for me.
About any brass tool will work well. Brass won't scratch the stainless steel.
Brass brush, brass scraper (brass slotted head screw driver), or larger caliber brass rifle cartridge flatted and bent to an accommodating angle have all worked well for me.
Liberally apply solvent of choice to area of concern. Wait a few seconds to a few minutes, then use the brass tool of choice to facilitate removal of the debris and apply elbow grease. Repeat until desired effect is reached.
