Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Wipe-Out?

I like Wipe-out. It’s used after Montana Extreme bore solvent if needed.

Love it.

Excellent products . For carbon fouling let it sit overnight . Accelerator is excellent to help speed things up at the range.

I started using bore tech eliminator and gave up on all other bore cleaners.

If wipeout is any better then Boretech Eliminator that's saying something.........

Boretech does everything I need it to and quickly!

Wipe out and boretech eliminator are about all I've used the last 10 years or so. I'll use Wipeout once in a while and let it sit overnight. Generally I use eliminator. I like using Wipeout and letting it sit overnight because I then just run a few dry patches and I'm done. No excess scrubbing the bore or the extra risk of damaging it with a rod or jag.

Y'all that use it know you should be wearing rubber gloves, right?

Not ammonia based, but butyl cellosolve (ethylen glycol monobutyl ether)

I just recently broke into my supply of Patch-Out, Tactical Advantage and Patch-Out Accelerator. Seems to work as advertised. Although I'm not sure the Accelerator made much difference.

I came here thinking I was gonna see a Surfaris video...




Or The Ventures




Or at least Sina

It's what I've used for more than a decade. It's easy and the odor is very tolerable.

I haven't been wearing gloves since I've been sing wipe out and boretech for most everything. I used to wear them years ago with shooters choice and Barnes cr10 but that was my old routine. Figures that wipe out is bad for you.

What does butyl cellosolve do to you?

I too love and use WipeOut. When I clean one down to the metal, I then mop the bore with EezOx and let sit overnight. Try that one, you will love!

From the MSDS I posted above:

"EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - SKIN CONTACT: PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS, PROLONGED
EXPOSURE MAY LEAD TO SKIN ULCERATION, MA Y IRRITATE SENSITIVE SKIN"

From another SDS:

"Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Now, those are probably for straight butyl cellosolve? I have no idea what concentration Wipe Out products might be, or if there is any dilution at all.
Odds are (maybe) that your limited exposure cleaning some guns will have no effect on you. Your choice.

I've already had a third of one of my filters (kidney) removed in a rather unpleasant operation and hospital stay. Who know what caused it. Was it a result of the common practice when I was growing up of washing greasy car parts in diesel or gasoline in a tub while using a wire brush and getting it in my skin? Working around other things like hydraulic fluids, acetone, etc?

I wear eye and ear protection while shooting, and running yard equipment now as I like my hearing and eyesight. I wear gloves when changing oil in my vehicles and when cleaning guns now, especially if more than one. But that's just me.

I was just throwing that out there for those that might be interested.

Great stuff

It's all I use and it's all I've used for years.

Big fan of it myself.

Real Wipe Outs

Excellenr product. I use the accelerator also to soeed it up.

I’ve used it since it first came out. I like to use Shooter’s choice on a couple of wet patches and 8-10 strokes with a bronze brush to knock down some powder fouling before applying the Wipeout. You can leave it in the bore for a couple of days without any problems.

If I think I’ll need more than one application, I lay the gun one its side, patch it out later with a couple of dry patches, give it another shot and lay it on the other side.

Wipe Out is the GOAT
