I have this ghetto *** plug cleaner that shoots carbide dust at the plug to clean it. Works pretty well, you just have to spray off the dust afterwards, since carbide would tear the hell out of your engine.

I have had really good luck with a wire brush and some carb cleaner. I have a couple sets of plugs and I just pop a clean set in and clean the fouled ones up

Torch 'em up, then wire brush off or whatever the crispy residue. That's my method.
