Since I have been hearing such good things about Wipe-out, thought I'd give it a try. How many guns can you clean with the 5 oz can, or is it a one shot deal?

Depends how much you waste when applying it, it takes a little finesse on the button to apply just enough to fill the bore, too much time on the button and you'll dispense way more than you need, I'd say upwards of 50 or more cleanings is possible from one can if just enough is used to fill the bore each time which isn't easy to do. I fill the bore from the breech end and collect the excess in a drink bottle over the muzzle, the liquid can be used like any bore cleaner would be used just like Patch-Out.

You can clean bunches. There is also Patch-Out if you don't wish to buy the foam. Personally, I like the foam if I'm cleaning a barrel without a muzzle brake.

I'm happy with the liquid version. It really does seem to get stuff left behind by other cleaning methods. I just finished cleaning a M-16 shorty barrel that I've so badly abused it will barely managed 12 MOA. First several inches of rifling are about gone. After the usual Cu++ solvents followed by Kroil/paste I thought that was it. Well, the Patch-out pulled alot more.

I do not find it difficult to use, nor do I find it difficult to keep out of the action area.

Have not tried the Accelerator yet.
