will the squeegee engage and clean out the rifling? and will it remove copper?

You need to treat the bore first with cleaners and possibly brush - just the same as if you were going to swab with patches. The squeegee will pull out all the loose crud including from grooves so that you need only one or two clean/oiled patches to be done. This just speeds cleaning time by removing crud with one pass or two, so you don't use 20 patches. I doubt it would remove stuck chunks of copper jacket in from grooves without all the other steps, but I suppose it's possible.

Eitan, It will sort of clean the rifling, by that, I mean you will still need to use a few cleaning patches after the squeegee. I doubt that the squeegee will remove copper, unless you've used a good copper solvent prior to using the squeegee.

Yes, I've used it on Rohl polished nickel and it removes the water spots and polishes the fixtures.

I have found Wright's to be one of the best copper cleaners I have ever used. It polishes beautifully and removes tarnish easily.

Yes. That is the intent of the design. It does not use the "squeegee" type design because they tend to wear out quickly.

The squeegee does pretty much clean everything from the barrel, clean & shiny after you run it through. If I am storing the weapon for any length of time, I will run a patch thru after cleaning with a small amount of my favorite gun oil to leave a film on the inside of the barrel... Hope this helps!

the dust collector does remove. with the proper coupling, it should work just fine

It does a great job on brass and bronze. Copper is the main component of bronze and is in brass too. It should work on copper.

I personally use it for a hand gun to keep off rust from moisture. I think it will keep calcium off copper but it will have to be reapplied to Maintain its pristine look. Hopefully this answered your question !

As far as I know, it does not remove copper. It is primarily for removing chlorine and fluoride.

Yes, and it works better on PVC pipes,based on other peoples answers (I have copper 1/2 and it works great)

Only if there is not a clear coat applied to the copper. If it is bare copper which has weathered, then yes it will.

RO water is aggressive and will attack copper (or galvanized) pipe, pulling out the copper and eventually eroding the pipe. If you have plastic piping then you should be fine.

It can. It will remove powder residue. With a brush it will remove copper and lead fouling as well but for heavy build up somthing like Sweets may be needed. Follow the directions with solvents.

The thing is hard as the dickens to get off once you grind w/it. You'll have to clean out all the residue and then try it.

Yes, it is the best copper cleaner I have used. It restores tarnished copper to its original shine. Be sure to use water with the application and wipe completely dry.

You can run an oily patch down the barrel or spray a CLP like Safari Charlie down the barrel. I ant back to my old method of cleaning because the Rem. squeegee system did not clean the bores as well as advertised.

I've only ever used it on copper, so I'm not going to be much help to you. I would imagine stainless steel is harder than copper, but can't say for sure. I hope somebody else will be able to help more than I have.
