Need Advice for GemTech Out Back II |Disassembly

[J80]

My older sealed OutBack II is getting much louder than it has been. After many thousands of rounds of rounds, it needs cleaned. I've viewed a thread detailing how one poster was able to disassemble his Outback, but I am running into problems. The GT suggestion of using Ed's Red is a joke, and has not cleaned out anything but loose carbon.

GemTech isn't any help in this matter since they won't disassemble the can for service.

I have heated the can to 450 F for 45 minutes to remove the red Loctite. Which burned off the finish! I placed the can in a padded vice, and have attempted to remove the posterior cap using soft-jawed pliers. The cap will not move, and I don't want to damage the can. All I can think of at this point is to drill holes for a spanner wrench in the muzzle cap, but I would really like to avoid doing that.

Any suggestions how I can disassemble this can?

Thanks for the help!
