What should I use to clean the carbon off stock pistons without f-ing em up?

brake clean and some shop towels will go along way ... if its a deep deposit then maybe a wire brush of some sort but you have to be careful that non of the wires fall into places that might cause you trouble later on. for my buddies mustang build, we took a vaccuum to the cylenders after to get anything we might have missed.
