[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 1086556, member: 13833"] I recently ran a test on some popular solvents. I placed some of my copper jackets in the various solvents for about 30 hours and then visually observed them and actually weighed each. KG 12 was the most effective with Bore Tech second. Solvents such as the old original Hoppes were virtually useless for removing copper but are still good for carbon. Obviously Sweets was NOT used because half of the barrel would have been missing as well as the copper if it was left in that long:D I hope this helps....Rich [/QUOTE]
