Five steps

How to apply Pb Blocker

Clean, warm, swab, let it set, swab again. It also works in the field without warming.

What build-up does to a cleaning day

A bore that has seen a few boxes of ammo is lined with lead, copper or plastic, depending on what went through it. That layer is what turns a quick wipe-down into a scrubbing session, and it is what a coating has to get ahead of.

Pb Blocker works by putting its own coating down first, so the fouling has less to grab. Reduces all build-up, easier to clean: the application below is the whole job.

Clean, warm, swab, set, swab again

Pb Blocker was originally formulated to combat lead build-up in the barrels of Glock pistols. Testing found the same results on lead, plastic and copper, so the method that works in a Glock works across the rest of the rack.

A warm barrel takes the coating best, which is why a heat lamp or hair dryer is part of the kit. Out at the range or in the field, skip the warming and the coating still works.

The five steps are laid out below as a strip you can scroll through, one frame for each stage of the job.

Then shoot more and clean less

Once the coating has set and the excess is off, the barrel is ready to shoot. Chuck Hudson of Edgewood, NM, treated everything from his 1833 long rifle to his Enfield and Mosin Nagants, and the point holds for any firearm: a coated bore gives up less at the next cleaning.
