Nevernevernverever. Especially in a revo.
I'm not too keen on having to do the paperwork everytime a weapon goes to the smith, so I've learned DIY.
You can get the Kuhnhausen S&W Revolver shop manual from Brownells quite reasonably.
If you want quick& dirty and highly effective, dunk the whole thing (minus CT grips) into a container of Marvel Mystery Oil (about $3/qt at Wallyworld.) Hang up muzzle up & drip-dry. Heating with a hair dryer will help you get the excess out. The excess,BTW, will come out along the hammer spring.
No buildup or gumming, will clean every nook and cranny, and offers modest lubricity as a CLP.
