I cover my gun in a large tub of dry rice, to dry it out, after using water to clean it.Kidding. All I know is I've been cleaning BP guns for about 47-50 years. I've always used water, sometimes with a little dish soap. The main thing I learned and changed over the years is not to use hot water. I have experienced flash rust with hot water, so now I use tap temperture.I'm not going to get into the drying method or lubes and chemicals because the question was about cleaning. Lubes are a rabbit hole.
