Topic: What solvent are you using to make clean your barrels?  (Read 5083 times))

I've never been a fan of over-cleaning barrels.  In fact, I go the other direction and don't make clean until I start seeing flyers.  I'm getting fix to become to a shoot in AZ in a week or two, and figure I should at least make clean my barrel and so some kind of preparation.

What are you lot folks using to clean your barrel?  IIRC, JB Diameter Paste is a scrap besides farthermost. I used to simply pull a few patches of Ballistol and leave information technology at that, simply might want to get a little more ambitious since it's been a few g pellets since I cleaned my barrel.  It has literally been years since I cleaned a barrel.

I've found that Hoppes #9 gets the barrel make clean as a whistle.  Subsequently virtually 12 Hoppes patches, I follow it up with enough dry out patches until they come out absolutely clean.  Subsequently this, I pull about viii patches with Ballistol, followed past another 4 dry patches.  Information technology leaves the butt clean and [slightly] lubed.

Hoppe'south Number Nine works well for getting the stuff water based cleaners leave behind.  Be sure to follow with several dry patches as it can detonate in a spring piston airgun.  This is probably not a problem with a PCP.

Just ballistol, unless its a new barrel or particularly dirty, then its goo gone followed by balistol.

Non-chlorinated brake kleen from Wally Globe works quite well.  It leaves no residue and is a good solvent for any lubrication or oils that get into the barrel, including the lube or coating that is one pellets.

I don't make clean the air burglarize/pistol barrel (s) unless accuracy drops off.
My arms all shoot below speed of sound so leading is not a trouble.
The springers become a bit of oil from the bedchamber which is good.

For a new barrel I use goo gone, followed past Ballistol. For any later cleanings, just Ballistol.

Joe, I agree at that place is no demand to use J-B Diameter Paste for routine cleaning.  It's cracking for deburring the riflings but once that'southward done, there should be no need to ever do that again.

When you need to clean and actually lift lead, something like Kroil, WD-40, or Shooter's Choice can all be used interchangably.  I no longer utilise Goo Gone afterward chasing behind information technology with Kroil and finding pb flakes on the patches.

WD-xl is ofttimes credited with some absurd uses but apparently cleaning an airgun butt is one of the things information technology is quite good at doing.  Frankly, considering that Mike Niksch uses it should be reason plenty.

Well, seeing as how WD-40 is (erroneously) credited with being a treatment for arthritis, why shouldn't information technology likewise be a fertility handling?  But I was thinking along the lines of a nutritional supplement.  If some of you twists were thinking of its use equally a lubricant, well I'm not responsible for the gutter in which your caput rests :)

At that place'south no powder residue in airguns, and so no reason to use anything every bit harsh as Hoppe's #9.

I used to button a Goo-Gone patch, followed past a dry one until it comes out clean. It was simply really needed after the Crosman pellets, as the antimony in their pellet alloy makes them shoot dirtier than pure lead.

Now, I lube my PCP pellets with Whiscombe Dear. (look up the recipe in Tom Gaylord's blog) My PCP never needs cleaning now.

The springers, I now clean with the airgun-specific bore serpent. (no brushes) Wet the terminate with Goo-Gone, then pull it through a couple times. This is only fifty-fifty necessary with Crosman pellets or when I've somehow got lube in the butt that I didn't mean to have there, and want to clean information technology out. (like if I use my PCP-prepped pellets, with the Whiscombe Honey. Then, my springers offset dieseling)

This is all based on Tom Gaylord's recommendations from his blog. ('how often to clean barrels' or something) Check it out, it'southward worth a read. Ol' Tom has never steered me wrong.

The first matter he says is that he NEVER cleans until accurateness starts to go down. So maybe your all-time bet is Non to clean, just bring the gear to practice it. And then, information technology becomes a redundancy plan, instead of something that might bear on the accurateness yous've come to expect.

Very interesting thread.  I got answers to some of my questions.

One thing almost WD-twoscore I'1000 wondering nigh though.  In my experience and the feel of others, WD-40 turns into a brown, sticky mess when it dries out.  What exercise you use to make clean up the mess from the WD-xl?  Or exercise you lot follow it with so many dry patches there's not plenty left to gum up the works?

Since WD-twoscore is primarily kerosene would ane exist improve off just using some kerosene?

I've also been using Hoppes #9 myself, I really don't need a solvent cause I really don't get any leading in my guns that a simple swab with the Hoppes9 takes care of.
