What Does A.R.F.T. Gun Barrel Treatment Do?

A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment does not just sit on metal surfaces, it actually permeates into the metal.  Post proper treatment it works to alleviate the rusting and corrosion process, which in turn alleviates the bore brush process.  Corrosive powders that typically adhere to the inner barrel no longer stick.  Under extensive Chronograph testing, results have often shown an increase in bullet velocity.  During testing on worn-out or shot-out rifling, A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment has shown to bring the rifling back into zero.  NOTE:  You will need to re-zero your firearm after treating it with A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment.

Treatment Methods

Note:  Avoid treating the Hammer Spring with A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment.

Dunk Process

For this method you will use a 3” PVC pipe with a sealed cap on one end.  Prop PVC in a secure location.  Fill pipe with A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment to a depth that will cover complete barrel length.  Refer to Bench Method instructions.  The only difference is that after the heating process you will completely submerge the heated barrel and let rest in the PVC.  BCG will be treated as in the bench method.

For clean-up simply wipe down all components with a microfiber or other soft cloth and reassemble.

Re-claimed solution may be discolored but the product has not lost its integrity.  Amount re-claimed varies depending on the absorption rate of the metal, as penetration will vary.

Field Method

Begin the process by firing off 60 rounds consecutively.  This should be continuous fire without interruption.  At this point barrel temperatures should reach a desired temperature of about 160-225 degrees F.

Now, plug the tip or end of barrel using a cotton bore swab that has been presoaked with the A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment to seal for lubrication.  Next, point barrel in a downward position and stand firearm on end and support it to prepare for lubrication.  Put a basin under the end of the barrel in order to reclaim any overflow during the process.  Using a funnel pour A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment down the BCG opening of the heated barrel.  Add solution until barrel is completely full.  Leave firearm upright and continue to monitor level of solution by evaluating level at BCG opening.  Add solution to keep topped off as needed.  Keep the barrel completely full until cooling process has completed.  At this point you do not need to stay and monitor solution level.  Let soak for a minimum of 6 hours or longer.

After barrel treatment is completed, remove plug from firearm and drain any residual solution into the basin for reclamation.  For clean-up simply wipe the firearm down with a microfiber or other soft cloth.  Re-claimed solution may be discolored but the product has not lost its integrity.  Amount re-claimed varies depending on the absorption rate of the metal, as penetration will vary.

Bench Method

Begin by removing the BCG and use a heat gun to warm the barrel.  My preference is the DeWalt Heat Gun, using the cone tip attachment.  Position heat gun pointing down tip of barrel and heat to a minimum of 180 degrees F.  Plug tip or end of barrel using a cotton bore swab that has been presoaked with the A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment; then point barrel in a downward position.  Fill barrel from where you removed the BCG.  Fill to top and prop up in a reclaiming container.  Let sit a minimum of 6 hours or longer.

Now disassemble the BCG that you removed earlier (AR Configuration) and set extractor spring aside.  DO NOT heat extractor spring.  Using heat gun preheat all components of BCG to 180 degrees F. and coat all components.  Let soak in a small vat that covers all components and pieces of BCG.  At this point you can put the unheated extractor spring in the solution.  Let soak for a minimum of 6 hours or longer.

When ready to reassemble remove parts, and pieces from the vat or reclaiming container and let drip back into the vat as to reclaim unused portion of A-R-F-T Gun Barrel Treatment  for future use.  Do the same with the barrel.

For clean-up simply wipe down all components with a microfiber or other soft cloth and reassemble.
