I wanted to ask pros here on theircleaning procedures andsupplies' choices. I own severalguns and I have a fairly established cleaning procedure and supplies for them, but I feel that I'm using too many different chemicals and my procedure is unnecessarily complex.
Here is what I normally do:
- Field strip and spray dirty parts with Breat Free Powder Blast
- Use Hoppe's# 9 solvent on a brush and/or rag and wipe off the remaining powder resedue
- Use Hoppe's # 9 solvent on patches, brushes and bore snake to clean the inside of the barrel and chamber
- Spray everything thoroughly with Rem Oil spray to relubricate after Powder Blast
- Wipe off excess oil, let dry
- Lubricate moving surfaces and barrel with drops of Hoppe's oil
- Reassemble.
My question is more to the chemicals I'm using (Hoppe's Solvent, Break Free Powder Blast, Rem Oil, Hoppe's Oil) rather than the procedure, but correction of the procedure will be appreciated too.
