    A lot of options now days.
    But reason I ask is I looked at my shelf the other day and I have bottlles and pastes and creams of stuff I havent touched in years. It was taking up a lot of shelf space for something never used.
    Pulled all of them down and boxed it up. Going to a friend that will use.

    Over the years I slowly and with great skepticism migrated to three products and that is all I use anymore. Period. Correction, four products.
    I use Bore Tech Carbon Cleaner, Eliminator and Copper Remover exclusively anymore.
    For heavily fouled ASR's and muzzel breaks I use CLR with a little scrubbing now and then till clean.

    I do have an Vevor ultrasonic cleaner but find I end up scaping and picking and redoing most heavily fouled parts, so I just use the carbon cleaner and be done with it. Easier, quicker and I don't have to clean the ultrasonic.

    Disclaimer:
    In no way is this an advertisment of Bore Tech.
    I have used Hoppes, J-B, Butch's, Sharp Shoot R and countless others with success.

    Automatic Transmission Fluid and a basic cleaning kit.

    I'm still using the same quart of ATF I bought 12 years ago.
