Ed's Red works as well or better than anything you can buy in the small expensive bottles at the gun shop or gun show on powder fouling, grease and crud, rust to a large degree and lead fouling in my experience. I have a small dunk tank filled with the stuff and it is amazing how good guns, parts and tools that looked rusty or dirty before going into the tank end up after their soaking. I leave out the lanolin too and acetone for routine cleaning. I have some with the acetone for aggressive cleaning and also add some Mavel Mystery Oil that can be had for about $2.00 for a small bottle at the autoparts store. I can't recommend this stuff enough.
