does hoppes #9 neutralize sweets?

[Cal Sibley]

Truthfully, I never know what to believe anymore. I've taken to using Kroil after using Sweets. It really gets down in all crevices and lifts everything out. After applying Kroil I wait about ten minutes, then run clean patchs through the barrel. It's almost like I had never cleaned the rifle. I don't know where all the residual crud comes from. I finish up with a coating of Rem Oil. I don't know that it's necessary, but why take chances? Best wishes.
