Looking for some advise. I got a brand Hornady LNL AP press and I watched the video on how to set it up. In the video the guy mentions you have to degrease everything and dry lube it. He says to use the Hornady OneShot but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Looking for advise on an alternative product that would work.
Thanks
 
There are 2 types of brake cleaner, one is alcohol based (non-chlorinated) , the other is perchloroethylene (chlorinated). Both of them can strip certain types of paint. Note that perchloroethylene is also what is used in dry cleaning.


Oneshot is n-hexane, which is pretty close to coleman fuel... (white gas)
 
I use Würth and Red Stallion brake parts cleaner religiously on all kinds of things, including brakes, guns, and reloading press and die parts. I have not damaged any metals or painted metal surfaces.

I would avoild using these on plactics as they can melt/scar some plastic types.

Was curious so looked it up, Red Stallion is n-hexane, same a OneShot
 
I used a small can of electrical contact cleaner that I bought at Home Hardware, (forget the brand), to degrease. Then I applied, (tremendouslymessysobecarefulwithit) jigaloo graphite to the rotor. It all worked fine, just mask the rotor and hold it inside a large enough cardboard box while spraying to keep the mess in check.

Neither product buggers up gunpowder or plastic.
