and it did a great job! I had never used it before but after not cleaning my little Walther P22 after hundreds of rounds it needed a good warsh.

I bought it at Menards. I sprayed the frame, barrel and slide down. I let it sit for a bit. I did the ol' qtip and bore snake. It was a quick clean. I was surprised how well the deep creep cleaned everything up.

So, I just thought I'd let my buddies here know in case anyone is looking for something new for cleaning or lube. It says it can used for lube but I just used it for cleaning. I had some old frog lube I used. I'm thinking I probably shoulda used some grease on the little P22.

Seafoam Deep Creep

I’d be careful using car products on guns. You’re risking jacking up the finish or damaging polymer

Under the description it list gun cleaning.

I was concerned when I first heard of it, too. But, all worries were put to rest today. I wanted to share how good it worked for me. I usually have to scrape carbon around the chamber but it all just wiped off with this stuff.
