Probably a stupid question but I just cant seem to find it at the retail level

I found one here. www.sciplus.com

Use vinegar as the solvent. It works well.

What about this little guy?

Would it work? I know it's a lot smaller and less powered than the big $400+ washers.

Try dilute simple green for getting general dirt off.

And a 1/1 mix of white vinegar and water warm to get the green corroision off. Be sure to rinse everything off afterward.

The simple green is just non-greaser for O2 clean... To clean out the reg, you need to get the tooth brush and UC.......

These guys also carry one geared toward the scuba tech market.

Typically, inexpensive sonic cleaners disappoint. Some don’t have a large enough tray for larger reg parts. Some use the wrong frequency or power to attack the types of corrosion found in regs. Instead, consider toothbrush and a white vinegar soak.

Vinegar and water equal parts is what I use most often but Simple Green at the same mixture works well. Just make sure you rinse in fresh water when you are done. Dry it off well and enjoy.

I am not sure if the normal customer can buy any stuff directly from gmcscuba. They always ask the account.. The price used to be double up through the LDS.
Been there Done that....

As for the sonic cleaner, the smallest size can't be problem, but it can hold the parts.
I am not sure what frequency is a right one for the regulator part cleaning though. It is just matter of time... I used to run three cycles.
