Xander Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I just got another Shadow, and this time the internals has lots of copper grease applied into them. I tried brushing them off, but I only made things worst coz it just spreads out even more. Any recommendations what to do, or does the grease just needs to be there?

ck1 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Lately I'm a fan of just wiping everything down with FP-10, cleans as good or better than Hoppes #9, but it leaves a thin film of lube that makes the next time even easier... the biggest thing though, it smells sort of "minty" instead of toxic which I just find is much better to deal with. Of course non-chlorinated brake cleaner will degrease the sucker completely, just keep it away from the red marker paint dot for the safety unless you want that gone too!

racerba Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Why would you want to remove it? It's grease that comes from the factory and helps lubricate the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asimonp79 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 On both of my guns there was grease from factury. I simply taken 1/4 roll of toilet papper, so the equasion goes as follows: (wipe off with TP and trow away)x10 = one gun without a grease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
