Help With Ammo Ring Cleaning Tip

[XD 9 Loaded Sub-Compact]

I've got a stubborn ammo ring on my slide that I can't get completly off. Just wondering if anyone has any tips. I've used both CLP and Gun Scrubber (synthetic safe) with the green toothbrush that comes in the AR-15 cleaning kit. It seems like the loaded chamber indicator gets in the way of a thorough cleaning.

Ammo Ring? On the breach face? I wouldn't worry about it.

Yes I know, and am not worried about normal wear there is just a little bit of black stuff that won't come out of there.

ones piece to be in as pristine condition as one can keep it in. i like to take the extra time to detail clean my firearm after shooting it. I am not saying that it won't function properly dirty, but if I want mine super clean you shouldn't have a problem with that either.
