## Questions & Answers

**Q: whats better the phosphate-free or standard versions for rifle brass?**
A: Hi Maricar,  The standard version has worked best for me.  Don't use to much and rinse well with warm water.With Best Regards,Bob Pastor

**Q: Can this be used to clean copper?**
A: I use it to clean copper, works very well. Will remove any patina so using on antique copper items may not be the way to go.

**Q: Anyone try this on gun parts? bcg's, pistol parts, etc? safe for various finishes? I was thinking of trying with a little dawn in my Ultrasonic...**
A: Do not use it for gun parts. It will strip the bluing. I don't know about cerokote or duracoat though. But I still use it for cleaning brass for reloading. For gun parts I found Simple Green or Castro Super Clean solutions works great. Just be sure to do a complete rinse and air dry with compress air. Then re-lube with your favorite gun oil.
