Overview

Formulated for ultrasonic firearm maintenance, this cleaning solution is intended to help remove carbon, dirt, grease, powder residue, tarnish, and oxidation from gun parts. It is designed for use with the Hornady Sonic Cleaner and is mixed with distilled water for best results. For users who clean brass in the same ultrasonic bowl, the product notes that the bowl should be washed with soap and water before cleaning gun parts to avoid transferring brass particles. This quart-size solution is a practical choice for routine shop cleaning where a dedicated ultrasonic setup is already in use.
