Simple Green Pro HD, @1:5, gets my guns cleaner than the products that are supposed to be the best.

Thanks!
1:5 seems to be a common ratio. I've decided to try Simple Green Aviation/ Motorsports formula in the quart size. I'll dilute it in my ultrasonic's tank that holds 14 oz. and up to 2 BCGs and some smaller parts. (That's 2.33 oz. concentrate mixed w/ 11.67 oz water.) Wait, my measuring cup is not that precise!

I don't know if you're aware of this but Home Depot sells the Simple Green Pro Hd which is what you should be using as it is safe on aluminum and I verified this with them as well.

Make sure I got this right....because I have heard the opposite....SG can be very bad.
Buy the SG HD Mix 5:1, 5 water and 1 SG. Spray on, let soak for how long? No damage to polymer (Glocks) and aluminum (Sig frames and AR's)? Thanks, Bronc |

So reading this got me curious enough to go to Home Depot and pick up some Simple Green Pro HD. I mixed up a 5:1 in a solo cup then threw my bolt and bolt carrier in. I let it sit a while then pulled them out and wiped them off. I was very surprised how easy it cleaned with no residue left behind. It looks like I'll be using this stuff from hear on out. It actually cleaned better than Hoppes and BoreTech and didn't smell.

Yes I use the purple color Simple Green HD that I bought from Home Depot. I don't really measure it but if I had to say it would be about 1:5 ratio. I just pour a good amount into the ultra sonic, then fill it up with water.
