Check the bottle for a website or phone number, plug whatever info you can find into a web search and call the company and ask, they should know, or as suggested, throw it away and buy some more. A phone call might not be to expensive though, they might even have an 800 number....<><.... :grin:

Sweet's
Hi there Brian, sorry that I,ve only just picked up on your posting, but you are asking about using Sweet's in your rifle, and will it have any detrimentally effects on the barrel,?? the answer is no if used properly. Sweet's is a Ammonia Oleictate which is a copper removing soap, the formula for Sweet's is Oleic acid 2-3% rosin 18% 660cc, Ethanol 95% 15% 660cc, Distilled Water 54% 1,940cc, Ammonia 0.98% 13% 520cc, Total 3,830cc ( one US gallon 3,785cc ) it will make a cear yellow liquuid with a sg of 0.95 and a pH of 10 a.pp. this may help you save some cash on buying Sweets as the cost of the cemicals will be about the same as what a 200mm bottle of Sweet's costs. All the best Jacko.

After I finish using Sweets, I run a patch soaked with carburator cleaner down the bore, let it evaporate and then a patch of kroil followed by two dry patches.
Carb cleaner won't do your stock finish any good either. I've seen some stool shooters that had little "booties" they put over their stock while cleaning. Seems like a good idea.

Sweet's 7.62 is an excellent copper solvent but you can "roll" your own and obtain an even more superior product for copper removal. Most ole timers know it by the name "Blue Goop". Just go down to your local pharmacy or home cleaning supply store and purchase a pint or quart of industrial strength ammonia - I'm not positive on the strength but I think industrial strength is 18%. Pour a small amount (4oz) in a glass jar, insert a pure copper rod/wire and allow the rod to remain in the ammonia until the liquid begins to turn blue - then remove the copper rod/wire and it's ready to use. The liquid will be suitable for cleaning for approximately 2 to 3 months, after that time period it will start to thicken a bit and looses its effectiveness. After you've cleaned the carbon out of the bore, wet a patch with the goop and wrap the patch around the jag so you can bring the patch back to the chamber. Make three passes, one after the other and add just a little more goop each time from the end of the barrel. After the third pass, instead of more goop add a quarter dropper of hydrogen peroxide to the patch and make a full pass. The hydrogen peroxide will make a foamy mess but will aide in dissolving the copper. Wait a couple of minutes and push a clean patch through your bore; you'll see the copper on the patch. Most bores only need 3 or 4 repetitions of this procedure and they will be copper free. The bores that have never seen a copper solvent and have been fired 1,000 times, you'll have to spend a little more time at it but it'll be considerably faster than Sweets and less expensive. Take the same precautions with Blue Goop as you would with Sweets.
