Default just cleaned out the bobcat good, some storage questions

Unfortunately I've got to pack up all the shooting toys until August due to school. Tonight I cleaned my Bobcat with 2 different kinds of solvents (Rusty Duck "Black Off" and T/C T17 cleaner) then, according to the Bore Butter tube, I ran a saturated patch down the barrel. Should this suffice? I didn't get to do the scalding water and wire brush thing but I can make time for it in the morning if you guys see it absolutely necessary.

Also, I took what I did with the BB to be "seasoning" the barrel but their instructions were confusing to me. Should I swab that out good before I shoot again? What exactly is seasoning?

One more: It seems like no matter how much scrubbing and wiping and rubbing I do around the nipple after I shoot I always get that whitish graycorrosion looking stuff all around it, the hammer, and that area of the barrel. Should I be worried about that? I think so but it seems almost as unbeatable as the cockroach. What's a good way to clean that?
