Thorough Cleaning for Firearm Parts

Firearm mechanisms can collect oil, grease, powder residue, dust and dirt during shooting, transport and storage. BALLISTOL Gun Parts Cleaner is designed to remove these deposits from firearm parts quickly and effectively.

The cleaner is suitable for regular maintenance of short and long firearms, including pistols, shotguns, rifles and sporting firearms. It can be used on compatible metal and firearm component surfaces where degreasing is required.

High-Pressure Spray for Difficult Areas

The strong spray jet helps reach areas that are difficult to clean by hand, such as rails, recesses, trigger mechanisms, joints and other narrow spaces. This makes it useful for more detailed firearm cleaning where dirt and grease collect in hidden areas.

Because the product is powerful and evaporates residue-free, it is especially useful before applying protective products such as BALLISTOL Gunex firearm oil or other compatible corrosion protection products.

Attachable Brush with Nylon Bristles

A practical attachable brush with robust nylon bristles helps loosen stubborn contamination mechanically. The nylon bristles provide useful cleaning action while being gentler than metal tools on many firearm surfaces.

According to the manufacturer, the cleaner does not damage bluing when used correctly. Always test sensitive surfaces first and follow the firearm manufacturer’s maintenance instructions.

Acetone-Free and Residue-Free Evaporation

The formula is acetone-free and evaporates without leaving residue. This helps leave a clean, degreased surface for further maintenance.

After cleaning and degreasing, metal firearm parts may require re-oiling or corrosion protection, as degreased surfaces can be more vulnerable to corrosion if left untreated.
