i was hoping to buy local. and save shipping.

 

[jonbearman]

Just dont buy any slip 2000 carbon cutter,it does nothing whatsoever.It is a total ripoff.

Well if you can buy Kroil local ask them to order some Kreen, and please report back on your results, borescope proof would be nice too.

I hope to get some soon and try it on an old barrel, but to date nothing is better than Warthog 1134.......jim

 

[guidom]

called around and could not find it here. ordered a quart online

 

[johara1]

I was waiting to see if there was a haze mat fee involved.......jim

 

[guidom]

i ordered direct from kano labs today. was about 15.00 a quart. plus shipping.

 

[guidom]

can't wait to try it.

Unless you have access to a borescope, and do "before and after" inspecting, you will have no way of knowing if it works or not.

Wish I had a Dollar for every miracle product that made the claim about carbon removal. I've tested many & have yet to find at least one that does the job claimed.

Most are snake oil, Slip 2000 being at the top of the list.

I use USP Paste after running a patch of the supplied oil. I stroke the first 10 inches of the bore about 12 times and the rest of the barrel about 3-4 times. Borescope says it's clean and I do it about every 150 rounds. 3 fouling shots and life is good in my Hart .308 barrel.

For chamber carbon rings, you are on your own. I don't have that problem.

joharal 1, i called kano labs to ask if there was a hazmat fee. i was told no, if it was shipped ground.

 

[johara1]

Yes they emailed me and told a qt. or less there is no hazmat but over a qt. it's a 32.50 hazmat fee....... jim

 

[guidom]

when i called they didn't tell me their was amount limits. was told no hazmat fee as long as it stayed on the ground.

Time to get out your rubber gloves, and eye protection. IMO, when considering any new gun cleaning chemical, you first stop should be to look at its MSDS, and it probably would be a good idea to look up what you are currently using.

I don't think i't that bad, or no worse than any of the rest. If it had a real bad rating it would probably work, but it may be a little better than most..... maybe....... jim

Good advice.

Used to work for the Department of Defense, and our outfit had a Tech Library that recieved an updated MSDS CD set several times a year. It's not common knowledge, but there are two versions of MSDSs like that one; the one like that one for public consumption, and the one government agencies get (which has highly restricted distribution) that spells out the Company Confidential stuff - that's the goodies under the label "Proprietary" in that MSDS. Sometimes some very interesting compounds crop up in those lists when everything has to be listed, instead of hiding various compounds under the label "Proprietary".
