Few seem to have heard of this product, & neither had I until a member of the US Olympic black powder team recommended it to me 20 yrs ago for BP cleaning WITHOUT WATER.  (Endorsement of US BP team also printed on label.)  Though this friend was someone I greatly respected, I couldn't help being skeptical, so when I first began using it, I'd leave my gun (an original Ballard Pacific I prize mightily) on the cleaning cradle for weeks at a time after shooting, inspecting the bore every few days for any sign of corrosion.  There was none, not then, not now.  No idea of chemical composition, but it was not at all "watery," nor did it look or smell like the GI bore cleaner of WWII.

This truly unique & outstanding product was made by TDK Industries, Doylestown, Pa., which now seems, unfortunately, to have gone under, or at least their former phone no. has been changed; found no trace of it on internet, either.  Anyone know any more about the company than this?
