Is it cool to use those little brushes to clean inside of valve casings?


What brushes? I use a vlave casing brush for the casings and a mpc brush for the ports in the pistons. I assume you'll use soap and very warm water when you use these brushes.

If the material of the casing is harder than the brush, should be fine. I.e. a plastic bristle brush. If it has a metal center (usually wire), be sure not to hit the sides with it.
