^^^ I put it on pancakes...
I use Gunzilla on my ice cream
Shooter, I'm an old guy that feels he got old by listening to others mistakes. I am willing to hear the pros and cons on WD40 as an Alaskan we have 3 things for almost anything. "If it is suppose to move and doesn't WD40, if it moves and ISN'T suppose to DUCT TAPE, if its out side and you want it inside BLUE TARP!^^^ Yes...you are !! ^^^
I've been waiting 19 posts for this age old argument to pop up...
I'm not getting any younger myself Art...and you do know that the WD40 argument is as old
as both of US put together. Having said that...I am of the mind that if something WORKS for you,
you use it !! I used WD40 for years on my firearms with no ill effects because I used it as a cheap gun scrubber
to blow out range crud until I could get home and field strip, clean, and lube my firearms properly. I then would use
Hoppe's #9, Rem Oil, and a multitude of other products over the years to finish the chore. And I am a firm believer in
using WD40 for what it is intended...as a Water Displacer (WD), a rust penetrator, and a rust preventative.
Just My 2 Cents...

"Stinky Stuff"??? We talking about "Bore Cleaner" here TinMan?
I have used Gunzilla for some time, mostly because my wife hates the smell of Hoppes #9. I have been satisfied with the results. I am an old dog, but am willing to learn new tricks.
I got a FrogLube kit and have been slathering it on some guns to try. I am following the instructions and cleaning off the old products with alcohol before heating and treating.
I took my P380 ( it was in my pocket anyway) and a Ruger Blawkhawk .45 Colt to the range yesterday to dirty them up a little and see if it makes a difference in cleaning
.
My first impression is that carbon type fouling wipes off with a rag, and a boresnake through the barrel will clean that out very well. I was shooting smoky old 255 grain lead SWC in the .45 so I ran a boresnake through the barrel and all cylinders,while it was still hot after shooting, and there was almost nothing to take out later with a patch and jag.
I think we have a winner!! My hands are loving this stuff too. They are getting nice and soft and of course the house is "minty Fresh".

You could put it in a smaller container if the size of the bottle is a problem, as a little FL goes a long way.
Not real sure what you mean.
