US Patent:

60778172, Jun 20, 2000

Filed:

May 10, 1999

Appl. No.:

9/307853

Inventors:

Paul R. Pomp - Scottsdale AZ

Assignee:

Heritage Institute, Inc. - Monterey CA

International Classification:

C11D 724
C11D 726

US Classification:

510190

Abstract:

A firearm bore cleaning agent and method are provided for detaching fouling residue from a bore of a firearm. The fouling residue includes carbon and metal residue, such as copper and lead, and the carbon residue acts to bond the metal residue to the bore. The firearm cleaning agent comprises the combination of a hydrocarbon solvent, such as butyl or amyl lactate, and an electrical neutralizing agent, such as hydrocarbon citrus distillate. The hydrocarbon solvent is configured to detach the metal residue from the bore by dissolving the carbon residue and the electrical neutralizing agent is configured to bond with positive ions of the metal residue to prevent the metal residue from rebonding to the bore.
