I'm thinking of mixing up a batch:
1 part ATF Dexron III
1 part K1 Kerosine
1 part Aliphatic Mineral Spirits
I'm going to leave out the Acetone and Lanolin as they're not really necessary, and acetone shouldn't be used indoors.
For normal cleaning, I'll still likely use Hoppes #9 on the barrel, and CLP on everything else. The plan is that every few thousand rounds to give my disassembled weapons an overnight soak submerged entirely in Ed's red.
Does anyone here use this stuff or have any opinions on it? Also, would the night sights on my pistols have any problems being submerged in it?
Thanks much.
