How to clean a O2 sensor

How do you clean a stock O2 sensor? I am redoing my exhaust and wanted to clean it. I was thinking MAF cleaner because it is safe for electronics. Any other ideas?

Do not use any chemicals on it. Use a propane torch to burn off the carbon. Hold it in the flame for a few seconds at a time until it all burns away.

I use Honda brand electrical contact cleaner and an air gun. Never had any problems. The cleaner can be purchased at and honda motorcycle dealership.
