Anybody use All-In-One cleaner/lubricants on revolvers?

Right on Chuck.
I see a local pawn shop that says Tons O' Guns that I'm itching to check out. Yea this one is all SS but with a bead blast finish that I have been paranoid about screwing it up. I'm really enjoying this forum and the help and information on here as I'm new to revolvers and definitely see more in my future. I'll be posting all my questions up on here for sure as well as following threads to keep on learning. I'll be sure to peep the photo bucket too!

For you guys trying to get the powder burns off the front of the cylinder you need to go to Wally World and buy a can of "Nevr-dull". It is cotton wadding treated with chemicals to clean silver, gold, brass, ect. There is even a version of it in the automotive department made to clean car wheels. Either version works great. Here is a link: Home Page As far as all-in-one cleaners for firearms go I use G96 complete gun treatment spray. Here is a link: G96 Products Inc. ? Gun Lubricants & Cleaning Products for Firearms ? Gun Treatment ® To clean the inside of my barrels is use Kano Kroil "The Oil That Creeps". Here is a link: Penetrating-Lubricating Oils If I soak a firearm that is disassembled I use Hoppes #9. I particularly like the G96 on blued firearms applied as a multi-step treatment to prevent blued firearms from rusting. The instructions on how to do this is printed on the back of the can. That's all that I've got on the subject.....Lonnie

What Shocker & Matt Hooper said. Been using Ballistol for about a year, and aside from the smell, I've got no complaints.
 
OK what ,if I may ask ,is your SPECIAL product, always looking to improve. thanks rich

Oh I don't know how special it is but for bore cleaning duty I use my 25% Kroil and 75% Hoppes mix. If copper fouling is now present, Sweets 7.62 solvent is used. For lubricant and bore swab the old tried and true Break Free CLP is my weapon of choice.
 
I use Breakfree CLP to clean and white lithium grease to lube.

It is important to use a heavy grease for lube especially on high velocity components like bolts and slides. Oils just fly off slides and bolts. Grease stays put better.
 
Always liked Tetragun stuff until recently. Used the Tetra Gun white grease on a couple of semi-automatic's slide. After about a week found them hard to work the action.

Going back to Rem oil for lubrication.
 
MPro7 cleaner and any good oil, with dry Teflon in the hot spots. The thing about MPro7 cleaner is it's more effective and quicker with repeated use. Here's a 4" 629 I had:

I recently picked up some All-In-One Cleaner/Lubricants for one of my semi-autos. Does anyone out there use these types of products when cleaning your revolvers?

For the most part, I use Hoppes No. 9 solvent and Break Free CLP for lube. On newer revolvers with blue finish, I use Break Free CLP exclusively because of some recent posts recommending that Hoppes No. 9 not be used on the newer blue finish from S&W. Sort of pathetic that a classic staple of the gun room cannot be used on the "Classic Series" of revolver.
 
I've been using basically Break Free for around 25-30 years and have had no problems. I do use Hoppe's #9 on any I shoot lead bullets in as it cleans the bore and chambers quicker and cleaner. A silicone rag for wiping the guns down is the last step before I put them back in the safe.
 
I use Breakfree CLP to clean all of my firearms. I never have to worry or wonder if it's going to damage a guns finish. Occasionally I will use some Hoppes #9 to clean up some heavy fouling.
 
I've been using G96 Gun Treatment for awhile and it seems to work well. (smells great too :D ) For stubborn deposits I'll also sometimes use Gun Venom cleaner first ....it's made by Hoppe's but doesn't smell like #9...works well
 
Been using Corrosion X for years. For a new firearm I apply it liberally inside and out and let it set a day or two then remove the excess. After that most fouling just wipes right off whether a pistol or revolver. On used guns I also had good results using it as a cleaner and it seems to do well as a lubricant.
 
Thanks to all of you!!!! This is such awesome information for a new guy with his first revolver! Thanks to all of you as I will have the cleanest 66 on the front range of CO!!!!
