I would appreciate advice from forum members as to what products are recommended of the many available for easily cleaning a revolver. Thanks

A search for "cleaning" in the subject line finds a number of previous discussions, including: this one.

I clean fairly often, so there isn't build-up of anything that some folks seem to have with ill-maintained firearms. What I typically use includes:

• Hoppe's #9 for bad bores, if needed.
• Break Free CLP spray, for general removal of crud/grease.
• Brass brushes, nylon brushes, patches + jig ... to remove the fouling once broken down by the cleaners.
• A bore snake. I use one dry, for cleaning the bore; and one lightly lubed with oil, for final prep.
• A good oil, such as Militec-1, Remington Oil, Hoppes oil.
• A good gun cloth, to wipe down the outside surfaces, for removal of fingerprints.

Stainless revolver, get lead away cloth
It's great for cleaning the powder stains on stainless. It will remove bluing
