Cleaning today. I plug the vent, fill with warm water and dump. When it comes out clear I start swabbing with wet patches, then dry patches. Usually the first two are pretty dirty. A dozen or so patches usually is clean. Then oil.
I don’t normally take a lock apart. A damp patch usually cleans the lock well. Then there is the gray white stuff around the lock. Again wipes off pretty easy. fouling sure seems to come off the exterior a lot easier then inside.
