I typically use Hoppes 9 for cleaning my guns – creature of habit. I’m guessing there's probably something better out there and I am definitely interested in what works best for you. After I do the initial scrub of the slide and other metal parts with Hoppe’s, I like to use one of the spray cans of a 'Gun Scrubber' type solvent to clear all the loose lead, fouling and dirt. The brand I usually use is Birchwood Casey Gun Scrubber, but there are other brands out there. Then I go back and do another once over of Hoppe's, wipe that down and finish with a light oil.
Does anyone know of a 'Gun Scrubber' type solvent (pressurized in a spray can) that is safe to use on polymer and plastic parts? The can strongly warns against using it on plastics and wood.
And, for that matter, is Hoppe's 9 the best thing to be using on plastics & polymer, or is there a better choice for that too?
Thanks.
