Overview

Breakthrough Clean Military-Grade Solvent represents a significant advancement in firearm cleaning technology, delivering professional-grade carbon and fouling removal without the harsh chemical odors and health concerns associated with traditional solvents. This benzene-free, HAP-free formulation uses high-purity hydrocarbons that exhibit extremely low irritancy to eyes and skin, making it safe for use in apartments, basements, and other enclosed spaces where ventilation is limited. The odorless formula allows you to clean indoors without subjecting family members or neighbors to unpleasant chemical fumes.

The solvent's effectiveness comes from its ability to penetrate deep into metal pores, lifting contaminants and breaking down carbon deposits that traditional cleaners struggle to remove. Despite its mild characteristics, the formula cleans efficiently and dramatically reduces cleaning duration while using less product than conventional solvents. The truly pH-neutral formulation ensures safety on all firearm materials including wood, plastics, polymers, Cerakote, and hydro-printing, eliminating concerns about finish damage during routine maintenance.

From an environmental and regulatory perspective, Breakthrough Clean exceeds modern standards. The 150°F flashpoint classifies it as non-flammable, while low vapor pressure controls VOC emissions in compliance with environmental regulations. The product is non-carcinogenic and not regulated under SARA Title III, CERCLA, or RCRA requirements, containing no listed hazardous waste components per EPA standards. This makes it suitable for both home and professional use without special storage or disposal requirements. Available in sizes from 2oz bottles to 1-gallon jugs, the solvent scales from field cleaning kits to armory operations.
