So, what'll it be? Hoppes #9? Militec? Ballistol? Breakfree CLP? FP-10? KleenBore? RemOil? Mobil 1?...
What do you use to give your blued guns a shiny protective coating? I've heard that some of the above may actually damage the finish. Maybe that's what happened to me. KleenBore told me that their Formula 3 solution is "great" for this purpose. So I used it on my shiny new CZ-75. It now has a matte look---not ugly, mind you; just not what it looked like when I bought it. Problem is, I don't know if this is helping or hurting it.
Any tips?
