Prolix gun cleaner, lubricant and preserver...any body tried it?

[Alantoo]

Has anybody any experience of using Prolix cleaner and lubricant?

They do not have an agent or dealer over here but it can be bought from their website.

It does look good stuff.

Got a litre of the stuff. I don't really rate it except for cleaning gunk. Ie old grease, carbon build up around the action. It did come in real handy once. I lent my drilling to a friend who dropped it with the action open on a hunt right in cow shitte and mud. The fine mud managed to get into every part of the action. I let it soak for two days in Prolix and every bit of crap fell out bar a few small bits of grit which eventually got worn down through continual use that you don't feel it any more. There are far better carbon and copper cleaners out there for barrels and much better lubricants and barrel protecting oils in my opinion.
