I know there was a thread where Chad gave his recommendation, which I value, but I wonder if there might be some advantage to this recipe over straight motor oil.

That's all most spray lubes are (think rem-oil)

Somebody posted some info here recently that showed ATF was better than most other general lubricants/protectant's.

The irony

Ill have to try this, Im always looking for better lubes/cleaners.

Just because my lube works dont mean theres nothing better. Gotta always have an open mind.

What about the ammonia in the hoppes with chrome?

Too small an amount to matter?

ANY MIX A LITTLE smaller.

I suppose I could divide it all by 8 and still have enough for a year.

I have used just about every kind of cleaner, solutions, oils over the years. Now all I use is Ballistol to clean and oil my guns. I mix it with water to clean black power guns and when I use old corrosive ammo. You can find it at Midway and Brownells and it is the only thing you will need to keep your guns clean and rust free. I wish I had stock in the company.
