I have a pattern I follow with "new" guns...
I field strip (sometimes further if indicated) them, remove the grips, and scrub them down with Knight's Black Powder Solvent and hot water, just as if they were BP weapons. Then I blow them out with air and repeat if necessary. Rinsing them off, lots of black and brown crud goes down the sink. Then I oil em up with WD-40 to the point of absurdity, reassemble, wipe down and put away.
With the Gun Scrubber, I used it first, had a lot of crud in the sink, then resorted to my usual routine which then left only a little gray water. So the Gun Scrubber didn't get everything, but it sure got close.
I think I may use my old methods for "new" guns, but resort to the Gun Scrubber for weapons I'm cleaning for a "second" time.
I did notice that the Gun Scrubber burned my skin right where my wedding band is. Only slightly, but odd.
