What Is The Cleaning Solution You Can Dunk Your Pistols In?

I was watching one of those shooting shows the other day, and they showed a cleaning solution which features a bucket full of cleaning solution which you can just dunk Glocks and HK's in. Total immersion; it cleans and lubricates all in one dunking. Does anybody know what the name of this stuff is and where I can get it? Thanks.

Sounds like Balistol.

I've removed the grips and dunked my East German Makarov in a coffee can full of Ed's Red.

It has acetone in the formula so I don't think I would put a plastic handgun in there.

A coffee can full of Ballistol would be kind of pricey.

A quart of Ed's Red costs about a buck.

I saw the same show, here's a link to the Poly-Dunk_it site. http://shop.cylinder-slide.com/clickcartpro/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi?usr=&pg=cat&ref=4
It was on the Gun Tech portion of American Shooter a few weeks ago.

the cheap (but slow) way out is to use a 50/50 mix of AT fluid and kerosene. It takes a few days on all steel, DK what it would do to Tupperware....
