Yes, it is interesting stuff.I've used it for all kinds of things.
I haven't used it on a firearm [that's why I posted the question].

I was tempted to try it as a cleaner but thought I'd ask the experts here.

I am not trying to save money on good gun oil or Mobil one
[I assure you, i can afford it]
I was just curious as this is my first firearm and have lots to learn.

Plus I like to tinker & experiment.
