I used carb cleaner, but petrol will do the job equally, if not better, as well.

I dropeed mine into decarbonising fluid for a couple of days, then I washed them thouroughly with water, blew them dry with the airline and then gave them a quick giong over with some parafin to make sure all the loose stuff was off.  They came up a treat :)
