Electrical contact cleaner leaves basically zero residue if squeaky clean is what you're after.
Stinks bad. Use it every day on brakes ECT. I don't use it on my timeMaybe I'm missing out and just don't know it. I've never used any of that stuff cleaning a gun.
Brake cleaner usually isn't very simpatico with plastic stuff. However it eats oil like nothing else. Kinda self explanatory lol. The Contact cleaner is a good option for cleaning electrical connections and doesn't eat the plastic up. It also dries up pretty darn quick. Also I've had good luck with denatured alcohol cleaning up greasy and oil covered tools. It dries out pretty well also. I haven't had any harmful effects with the plastics used in cordless power tools but YMMV.Anyone use crc breakcleaner (non chlorinated) instaed of Lucas Contact cleaner? Comment please about results.
I second safety glasses. I had brake cleaner get on my normal glasses and actually cause the lenses to crack!!!Remove the grips/ stock no matter what they are made of, before spraying the metal with anything. Outdoors, wearing gloves and safety glasses. Don't ask how I know.
