I've been thinking on trying some of the JB Non-Embedding Bore Cleaning Compound and thought I would ask for some advice or comments from the people who have experience with using it in air gun barrels. I have an Impact on order and heard that a light polishing with JB is good to help break-in the barrel, hence the questions.
So, I would appreciate a bit of help If you don't mind...
Guess the fist question would be is polishing the barrel worth while or is it unnecessary?
If polishing is worth the effort...
Is the compound for fixing "problem" barrels or do all barrels benefit from some light polishing or a "good" polishing?
Do you use it once on a new barrel or is it part of the a regular cleaning routine?
Do you hand-polish in a linear fashion or use a drill to spin the patch?
Any suggestions, comments or cautions? Maybe a link to a good video?
The JB Non-Embedding Bore Cleaning Compound is not readily available in Canada so I may have to order from a supplier in the US. I have several canisters of Dremel Polishing Compound, is this a safe substitute for the JB compound?
Thanks in advance for your comments!
