Why shooters choose Breakthrough® Military-Grade Solvent (16 oz)

• Odorless & low-toxicity: Clean indoors without harsh chemical smells or eye-watering vapors. User-safe formulation.
• Fast, thorough cleaning: Dissolves carbon, burnt powder residue, and old oils; wipes away clean and evaporates without residue so parts are ready to lube.
• Material-safe: Non-staining and safe for metal, polymer, wood, Cerakote®, and hydro-print finishes.
• High flash point, shop-friendly: ~150°F flash point reduces flammability risk vs. typical low-flash solvents (always follow SDS).

Best for
