Cleaning MP 85mm TB

I recently acquired a used Magnum Powers 85mm here off the forums. It is a bit dirty, so I'm looking for ways to clean both the inside and outside. Would I be able to soak it in isopropyl alcohol for a day or two? Let all the dirt dissolve itself off?

So would isopropyl be frowned upon? I should have a couple of cans of brake cleaner lying around
 
You dont hafta soak it just spray a spot and wipe it n keep goin til clean it wont take a few cans
 
I wouldn't go crazy with any of the method mentioned because I wouldn't want to destroy the shaft seals. I don't know what material they are made of and what they are resistant to.

I am thinking old toothbrush and a slow solvent like naphtha would be best. That way, you can control where it goes.
 
Nothing to taking them apart. Send it to me and I can clean it and powder coat it for $30. Any color you want.
