Yep, had a 338 needed either 2 or 3 runs.

Have a 338-06 rebore right now that I'm going to put the 2nd coat on as it still fouls really bad by the muzzle... that was what the other one did too.

Doug at the time, said clean and recoat a couple times if needed.

You should be able to just degrease them, then apply.

I have now applied the product 3 times. Definitely seems to have helped. Still getting copper fouling when shooting jacketed bullets but it is easy and quick to clean up with patches and Barnes CR-10. I shot 15 rounds of gas checked cast lead bullets today and saw no lead fouling. It was with a mid range load. Will see how it does with my hotter loads but it is looking promising.

Thanks for the progress report! Pretty much parallels my experience.

Often they keep improving a little over a few more cleanings.

I've observed improvement over time. I have barrels that just don't foul, period. They only show carbon residue.

Even rough barrels usually improve post DBC. Some of those never quit fouling, just foul less and are easier to clean. Those usually will clean up with a few soaking treatments with Eliminator or similar.

I'm a DBC fan, treat everything, even new premium barrels. It can't hurt. Makes me feel better... smile
