Bought some old kegging equipment for cheap from a local guy. The regulator is pretty dirty and the gauges look to be dirty from the inside. Is there anyway to get them cleaned up? Can I submerge it in water? Thanks in advance
 
Some gauges can be dismantled, but it is very easy to damage them. I immersed one of my regulators trying to find a leak. Didn't seem to bother it & the low-pressure gauge was the problem. I doubt it would help much in terms of cleaning them, though.
 
It wouldn't be the worst thing it the world if the gauges don't get cleaned up. I guess I should really wonder if the inside of it are okay to run the co2 through? Any ideas how to check?
