Hello from Washington. First time SKS owner and first time having to remove Cosmoline. Just received my Chinese /26\ from Classic Firearms. Great forum with lots of info thanks.

hi Tflow and welcome. good to have you here. nice, more pics after cosmo is gone, please.
Glad to have you here! Nice looking carbine. If we can help in any way, don't hesitate to ask. thumb1
Welcome and congrats on being a new SKS owner. Caution - they can multiply.
Welcome from the dry side of WA! thumb1
Looks like a nice 1966 with what appears to be a Chinese stock. Don’t be tempted to over-clean the stock. Moderate heat and wiping with paper towels will do it without removing any of the remaining original finish (shellac).
Thanks, after lots of elbow grease and beer she’s cleaning up nicely. Photos coming soon

You certainly have the basics down. :)
One of my favorite things is seeing what's under cosmoline. It's like a treasure hunt.
Welcome from the Sonoran desert!
