Break Free Bore Cleaning Foam Review

Break Free offers a product called the Bore Cleaning Foam.  The foam is specifically designed to clean copper and brass residue from the bore of your firearm.  The question is…does it work?

I picked up a can of the Bore Cleaning Foam, and had the perfect chance to test it after spending a day at the range with my Sig P226.  I’m generally pretty skeptical of cleaning products, and the incredible claims they make.  However, I have been using Break Free’s CLP for years with good results, so I figured I would give another one of their products a try.

Following the instructions, I field stripped the pistol, and sprayed the foam directly into the barrel of the firearm, filling the bore completely.  I then set the barrel to the side while I cleaned other parts of the gun.  After 15 minutes, I ran a few clean patches through the barrel, and, amazingly, I had a clean bore.  No scrubbing needed.  It really was that easy.

The foam is non-toxic and is odor-less.  It doesn’t take a lot of foam to clean the barrel of a pistol, so a single can should last for a good while.
