Suppressor + trigger group maintenance

Safety stopped working, jammed in the fire position on my trigger group. I had to disassemble the entire unit to figure out how to fix it. Sprayed some WD40 and PB Blaster into the safety mechanism and finally worked it loose after fifteen minutes.

My question is for those who shoot a lot with suppressors, what do you use to lube and clean the trigger assembly?

How frequent do you do it?

I’m fairly new at this and learning some of these lessons the hard way.

Thanks for any advice or experiences shared.

Sorry, it's a 10/22 that has a factory trigger group.
Can is a Warlock II.

The trigger group was basically just cleaned with cotton swabs and canned air.
Obviously in retrospect, that is not enough. Receiver and the other moving parts are lubed with oil and light grease film on sliding parts.

Rifle had about three bricks through it when the safety stopped working. The magazine release also got stiffer for releasing the magazines.

Ammo is almost exclusively CCI-SV.

Hope this helps.
