CDR Valve

I just took the cdr valve off this morning to clean it and wanted to ask how are we supposed to clean it? I wiped it down used gas to clean the inside then blew it out with a compressor. Any other or better method?

Well you started on the right track, but using an air compressor was a mistake... Thats a good way to blow out the diaphragm

Did you try searching the forum first? This has been discussed ad nauseum...

Also have you read the IDI FAQ thread? the info was in there as well.
