That's why I moved the toaster oven out to my workbench. Now it's not kitchen stuff, it's garage stuff. Problem solved!

He possibly does not want to use it just because the fumes and prolonged exposure is definately not good for you. I admit the brake cleaner works amazingly well and is cheap. But you have to admit some people do not do well around the fumes that stuff puts out.
Personally I use the stuff but with gloves and outside, and it does bother me I am aparently sensitive to the fumes from it, so I use it I'm just extra careful around it.
That is exactly what I am talking about. People are excited because the frogLube "CLP" smells better, works better, and is better for the persons safety using it then other CLP's and lubricants. The FrogLube "Solvent" is suppose to be the Solvent, Cleaner version of this.
It seems to work, but it is priced like liquid gold. Again, has anyone else used the "Solvent", and if so, how did it work for you ?
Anyone ever think that generally more harm than good comes from cleaning guns?
I do know that I have been around long enough to see most of these wonder lube's and solvents come and go in the firearms world. If my memory is correct, many, many years ago WD-40 was the do all. Then Break Free CLP came along. I used it and liked it, but then came desert warfare. We were told over and over that CLP did not work, and..........maybe in that circumstance it did not do well.
Then we had the Lube of the month. Militec-1, Weapon Shield, M Pro-7, Tetra, KG4, Rem Oil, Slip 2000, Slide Glide, Stroke 29, Kellube, Gun Butter, Top Gun, etc., etc.
Now enter FrogLube. The selling point is that it works better then all others while being pleasant and safe to work with. Who really knows ? Only time will tell if all of this is true or if it will just fall into the pile of all the others before it.
I have fallen for all the Buzz again, and am trying FrogLube produts. I Like the smell of the CLP and think that it is awesome to have a crud cutting solvent that you do not have to use outdoors with gloves on.
Just wish the Solvent was not so expensive. Almost to expensive to use. And yes, most (Including Myself) probably spend way to much time cleaning our guns.

I use this stuff for light duty degreasing. No need to dilute and is safe on aluminum though I never did have issues with the regular stuff, just heard is was corrosive on aluminum.
When I really want to get something clean I use mineral spirits or gunscrubber/brake cleaner.
