You didn't state what "cleaning properly" is. Would you mind enlighten us what your rendition of "cleaning properly" is.
MY 95 Dometic 2807 has had nothing but the process I mentioned and it works as designed. Just took a mirror and looked in the burner tube and all I saw was metal. Again I suggest that you and others are over think the cleaning process, thus wasting time and materials. If you can't do a complete inspection of the burner tube with a flashlight and mirror you may want to leave your maintenance to others.

WOW! So much rookie over kill. Tap the boiler tube to remove any loose rust from the stack. Remove any debris covering the burner slots. Place something in front of the metering jet and gently blow out the burner tube. All done.

I disagree. While blowing it out with air is better than nothing, it is not the equal of removing the burner tube and cleaning it properly.
And, removing it allows for a complete inspection as well.
