RE: Lube and cleaner recipes
For cleaning between shots and final gun cleaning at home nothing beats plain old Windex with vinegar. Yes, Windex with vinegar. It is the clear Windex. i put it in a spray bottle. It eats black powder, Pyrodex and Clean Shot fouling very quickly. It dissolves the primer residue on inlines. It works because the acid in the vinegar reacts with the base in the propellant. Sometimes you can see it fizz like putting vinegar in baking soda. Mike Venturino, blackpowder editor, got me onto this. Itworks better than anything else out there. Try it.
After cleaning the bore with Windex and vinegar run an oily patch throughit.
