    Default Best Gun Cleaning Solvent and KIT

    I have always believed in the tried and tested methods. My first cleaning kit was the KleenBore and Formula 3 solution . I have returned to the FA fraternity now after almost 7 years and BOY have things changed. I picked up a solution called eezox from the tacshac smells nice , however I cant comment as yet as I haven't been at the range that often. What are your views and opinion on the BEST right now and anyone knows where I can buy Kleenbore products.

    I use Hoppes no.9 in all of my guns: hunting rifles, 1911, glocks, shotgun, revolvers

    No idea about Kleenbore.

    Hailstorm for the Slip series of products.

    I'm currently using slip2000 ewl to lube,slip2000 copper cutter for barrel and eezox as well. Eezox was bought more as a general purpose item,but I found it works great to clean parts as well,and excellent on the slide and can be used on your knifes too. All from hailstorm.

    I looooove eezox. I only used it for rust prevention on my knives in the beginning but a few months ago i found it works extremely well as a solvent for my gun. I use it to clean my gun and then just a few drops of ewl for lube

    I also use Slip and Eeezox! The Slip 725 is amazing when cleaning any FA!

    Stay AWAY from the RAM trisol, it breaks down pretty quick and leaves a massive mess! There gun oil and nitro solvent are ok.

    Any solvent, enough brushing and patches till its clean (g96 has worked well so too forrester bore foam) then fluid film as rust preventative. Slip 2000 be the lube!
