QUESTION: I have read that people will make up a 50/50 blend of MC#7 Bore Cleaner and kroil and allow it to soak in a bore overnight. My questions are: will this procedure remove additional carbon and is it safe to leave the bore wet overnight?

ANSWER: Yes. It is believed that, this blend you mentioned will penetrate and pull carbon fouling from the pores of the steel. It is safe to leave it soak overnight. Within 24 hours, or less, it will remove whatever carbon was present.

NOTE: It is necessary to clean the bore first with full strength MC#7 Bore Cleaner prior to using the 50/50 overnight blend.
