Hello,
was wondering Robert what kind of solvent for the "When done rinse off blade with solvent and dry"? I have a couple of pieces that have rust spots that I would like to eliminate as they are a little aggresive. thanks |

Hello Imas560, I use Hoppe's No. 9 gun solvent but any good gun solvent would work. Hope that this is of some help.
Best, Robert |

Hello Robert,
had a quick look at my gun cleaning stuff and there's a small half filled bottle of Hoppes No. 9 "Powder Solvent" as well as some "Tetra Gun Copper Solvent". If I remember correctly the tetra solvent is great for filthy lead caked barrels and for stripping the arse out of all it touches, so I'll keep that in its own little haz substance area. Do you dilute the Hoppes or apply full strength to rag and wipe down blade? I also found an un-opened pottle of some Renaissance wax polish I'd been saving for a special occasion so I'm raring to go. thanks for your help |
