I dont believe he ever said that he was planning to do the work himself. I think he was asking for recommendations for a qualified gunmaker to do a full strip and clean. I could recommend several guys who do a full strip and clean (i.e. full disassembly of the entire gun not just the locks, ultra sonic cleaning of lock parts, internals, action and forend with mild degreaser, polishing of pitted parts, fire blue pins and screws if requested, lubed and reassembled). If this is what you are looking for, here are a couple of names that will do you right. Keep in mind, for the type of strip and clean I just described, it will cost in the neighborhood of $200 to $300.
