I recently purchased some Break Free CLP for use on my new AR-15 but prior to this I was using some other gun oil and solvent.  My question is, how do I 'get rid' (for lack of a better term) of the old cleaner so that I don't mix it with the CLP?

Thank you for your time.

Trash can, and welcome aboard.

rubbing alcohol or brake cleaner should do it

Do you mean get rid of what's on the gun or the contents of the bottle?  In the first case just clean and lube with CLP, no worries.  In the second, chuck it or give it away...

Kind of an aside, but to all-never mix leftover cleaning solutions in a common container. The various chemical combinations are often incompatible, and can result in nasty stuff.....that is not very well stated, but should get the message across.

I use non chlorinated brake parts cleaner when I go from CLP to say a copper remover. As was stated above, not a good thing to mix unknown chemical together.
