[QUOTE="Naymola, post: 2171306, member: 3843"] I just have to say thanks for the mentioning of using CLR for removing carbon, I had no idea. 10 years ago I bought all the bore carbon removers I could find and made a comparison of them. Nothing impressed me. I question Wipe Out's ability to remove Carbon, I didn't see it. So after watching Eric's video, I made a trip to the store for a fresh jug of CLR. One rifle in particular gives me a lot of trouble with carbon, I was simply amazed how easy it removed the carbon ring along with carbon deposits in front of the throat. I then went on a bender and cleaned four other rifles, spent most of the day cleaning carbon. One tip I'd mention for ridding the "carbon ring" is to just get the brush into the throat a 1/2" and twist it by hand a couple dozen times to specifically zero in on the ring. I used both bronze and nylon brushes and had better removal with the bronze. However, twisting that bronze brush caused a few strands to fall off, could see them on the patches. I'm pretty much going to throw all these other chemicals into the S**t can and clear off some shelve space. Cheers! Gary [/QUOTE]
