To deep clean it, pour exactly 432ml of gasoline on top of the cylinder. Spin it around three times and light a match on top. Gets rid of any bad spirits and burnt on sludge. May or may not need new plastics depending on if you care about looks.

Ill give you $100 for the "action" figure. I know you bought it.
