What do you all thing about these? I use them and have for years. Great way to give a weapon a quick wipe down once a month.
The last thing I do after cleaning is a quick wipe down with Hoppe's #9 Gun and Reel cloth.
The best product in a "rag" is the Sentry Solutions Marine Tuff Cloth. Silicone rags used to be the best thing going, but Sentry Solutions passed them by years ago.
I've been making and using my own for decades; currently using WD40 silicone spray on discarded cut up cotton t-shirts. I also spray the innards of all my firearm cases with it. I've had excellent results.

What do they use, if you know, and why is it better than Silicone. (I never was a fan of Silicone)The best product in a "rag" is the Sentry Solutions Marine Tuff Cloth. Silicone rags used to be the best thing going, but Sentry Solutions passed them by years ago.
I have been using Rig grease on a rag to wipe down guns after use. Works well.

I use old cloth diapers for guns and tools. Some I gave are 15 years old this year.I usually keep one on my range bag and they do work well and last a long time. I also have found that ankle-high athletic socks work very well because I can slip them on like a glove. With a light lubricant on them, I slip one on each hand for the final wipe-down. Have found that about any decent gun lube works. Have lots of them because walking around a track is my favorite exercise. After miles of walking the worn socks make good gun rags.
