Be careful with Hoppes #9!

My wife, daughters and even my dog, run for cover - right out the front room door - in the freezing cold weather, when they see the Hoppes #9 bottle.
Wait - never mind! I gave that 2/3rds remaining bottle away 15 years ago.

I guess I'm old fashioned, still cleaning the way I was taught 40 plus years ago. About as advanced as I get is that I might use some brake clean once in a while (with common sense, keep away from plastic or stock finishes). I only have one polymer gun so that's not a huge factor.

Thanks for the heads up!
