Testing WD-40 on patches verses water.
Which presents a cleaner patch at the end of the day?
Testing WD-40 on patches verses water.
Which presents a cleaner patch at the end of the day?
Not sure..Interesting...I guess. But the point of the correspondent's question escaped me. What did he hope to find?
Not really...the gun cleaned as normal.Any issues with the wax in the wd?
Yeah, same here.Not sure..
..Water is all I use to wet patches & clean with.
I don't use any commercial products anymore.
No difference. Water is cheap.
I don’t like how it gums up over time. For my match M1 Garands I use CLP only.I use WD-40 as a Rust Preventative. Midway did a study a while back. They coated a bunch of metal plates with different substances and stored them in a humid environment. The WD-40 plate came out the cleanest.

Huum does that include Ballistol--I seem to remember reading here that using any petroleum based products with BP would turn fouling to tar and ruin a gun. Didn't seem to have a negative effect on your bore and it made clean up much easier.
I’ve never had wd40 harden up on me.dont know where the old wives tale came about that WD 40 turns into wax. used it 50 years never saw that. seems like talk like that belongs in a laundromat
