Just thought this might be an interesting thread in the use of homemade CLP vs the store bought labeled brands.
I know there are alot of people here who are in the industry along with competitors and armorers and the like and I've heard a few of you using your own home brew CLP and thought maybe some of you would be interested in sharing your own formulas, ratios, etc... and anybody with knowledge of the various store brands and their contents would also be welcome to share....
I heard somebody say that Hoppes was 90% kerosene, is that true? I know alot of arfcommers use Mobil 1 but I've heard of others who take it a step further by adding ATF and hoppes. What's your home brew consist of and how did you choose the compounds and ratios that you did? Any concern of using solvents and lubricants together?
Also, Grease, do any of you make or use a particular grease?
