Update: I finally tried that ultrasonic cleaner trick for shutter blades

Had a Canon AE-1 with sticky blades that wouldn't budge after my normal cleaning, so I ran the whole assembly in my cheap ultrasonic tank for 90 seconds with a 50/50 mix of water and simple green. The gunk that came out was insane, and the blades snap perfectly now. What's the longest you'd leave a part in there before worrying about damage?

Yeah, that gunk coming out is always the best part.

Honestly, that's how I feel about most things that need a deep clean.

My ultrasonic jewelry cleaner taught me the same lesson.
