Bore Tech Black Powder Solvent — 16 oz Squeeze Bottle (Model BTCJ21016 | UPC 667739210164)
Cut through stubborn fouling the smart way. Bore Tech Black Powder Solvent is a modern, water-based cleaner engineered specifically for black powder and black powder substitute residues (Pyrodex®, Triple Seven®, etc.). In a convenient 16 oz squeeze bottle, this high-performance formula attacks the corrosive salts, carbon, sulfur, and lubricant buildup that traditional soaps can leave behind—without harsh odors, ammonia, or petroleum solvents. Whether you run cap-and-ball revolvers, muzzleloaders, or black powder cartridge rifles, BTCJ21016 helps you clean faster, protect better, and shoot more.
Why Shooters Choose Bore Tech for Black Powder
Purpose-Built Chemistry: Formulated to neutralize corrosive salts and dissolve carbon/sulfur fouling common to black powder and substitutes.
Fast-Acting & Residue-Free: Penetrates into rifling and tight corners, lifting fouling so patches come out cleaner, quicker—no greasy film left behind.
Water-Based & Odor-Controlled: Ammonia-free, petroleum-free solution that’s safer for your shop and less offensive in enclosed spaces.
Metal-Safe Protection: Helps inhibit rust after cleaning when used as directed; safe for carbon steel, stainless, and modern barrel finishes.
Squeeze-Bottle Precision: The 16 oz bottle dispenses easily into patch jags, on nylon/bronze brushes, or down the bore without waste or mess.
Perfect For
Cap-and-ball revolvers (Colt- and Remington-pattern), muzzleloading rifles & pistols, black powder cartridge rifles/shotguns, and pyrodex/Triple Seven users.
Range days, reenactments, and matches where you need fast turnaround and dependable protection.
Collectors & restorers wanting modern cleaning performance that respects vintage steel and finishes.
How to Use (Quick Guide)
Unload & Verify Clear: Ensure the firearm is completely unloaded and uncapped.
Pre-Soak: Apply solvent to a patch and run through the bore from breech to muzzle (or as your platform allows) until fully wetted.
Scrub: Use a nylon or bronze brush saturated with solvent to loosen fouling; focus on chamber, cylinder, nipple/flash channel areas for percussion guns.
Patch Out: Push clean patches until they emerge light gray/white. Re-apply if heavy residue persists.
Dry & Protect: Run a dry patch, then apply your preferred corrosion inhibitor or light gun oil to metal surfaces.
Pro Tip: For cap-and-ball revolvers, remove the cylinder and nipples for direct access—solvent will make short work of crusted salts and carbon inside the threads and flash passages.
Black Powder Cleaning Tips
Clean the same day: Black powder and substitutes are hygroscopic—they attract moisture and can cause rust quickly.
Mind the small parts: Nipples, cones, breech plugs, and flash channels trap salts; soak briefly, brush, then flush with solvent.
Finish strong: After drying, apply a light protectant to bore, exterior steel, and small parts; recheck in 24 hours and wipe if any residue weeps out of pores/threads.
Compatibility & Safety
Safe on common gun metals and finishes when used as directed.
Compatible with brass, bronze, nickel, stainless, blued, Cerakote®, and polymer frames/stocks. (Test in an inconspicuous spot if unsure.)
Do not ingest. Avoid eye/skin contact. Keep away from children and pets. Use with adequate ventilation.
