JB Bore Shine & ISSOS

Just checking if JB Bore paste and JB Bore shine are two different products with different applications?

I have JB Bore Shine and was wondering is this suitable for barrel maintenance. Some shooters I know recommend Autosol polish, but seeing I've got a container of the Bore Shine I'd like to use that if it is suitable.

Also any thoughts on the use of ISSOS paste for cleaning out carbon. I've been using it after cleaning with Bore Shine solvent.

Hi Nick, I have not heard of JB Bore Shine sorry. Only Butch's Bore shine copper solvent. JB Make a standard paste (JB Bore cleaning compound) and an ultra fine version (Bore Brite). Either can be used with the instructions given in the Accurizing book.

I have not used IOSSO sorry.

Re: JB Bore Shine & ISSOS
Thanks Nathan

My error, just checked the package and yes it is JB Bore Brite. Thanks I'll use it as per your instructions along with the purple 3M pads. The purple 3M pads are not readily available here in AUS, I ended up buying a pack of 5 on Ebay from China.

Hey Les, go to an engineers supply shop rather than an auto type shop- though auto shops should stock it. It is sold as Autosol in Oz and is readily available (in QLD at least).

Re: JB Bore Shine & ISSOS
Sorry- just saw your answer Marty. Yep, Repco should stock it and they aere an auto store. The gold coloured box is the one you want Les. It has been popular with classic bike owners (polishing crank cases etc) for donkeys years.

Just saw your query. Another option in AUS would be Super Cheap Auto. They list Autosol 75ml tube for $8.88on their website.

Just type Autosol into the search engine on their website.
