I just fini-oh sorry, hi pros! I just finished looking at the archives and someone brought up the use of carb cleaners a few months back.
A lot of you said that it was a good way to get out the junk in your pistols.
The same number of opinions leaned toward NOT using it since it dissolves plastic grips, stinks, painted surfaces are to be avoided, etc. Someone even said his nose bleeds when he uses it.
I just used a carb cleaner (STP) yesterday. This was BEFORE I read this material.
I just ran around the house checking the grips of my wife's PPK/S as well as my G26 and HK USP. They seem fine so far aside from
the slight smell which I think comes from the carb cleaner.
Some also said brake cleaners were good, some said they were bad. So who to believe!
In a nutshell I am downright confused.
Please help pros!
