Frequently Asked Questions
Can these patches be used with any shotgun cleaning solvent or oil?
Yes. Birchwood Casey's lint-free, cross-weave patches are chemically compatible with virtually all bore solvents, gun oils, and CLP products. Their highly absorbent material ensures they hold and transfer cleaning agents effectively without falling apart, making them a versatile choice whether you prefer copper solvents, powder-dissolving bore cleaners, or standard lubricating oils.
Are these patches reusable, or are they single-use?
These patches are designed for single-use passes through the bore to ensure you're always pushing fresh, clean material through the barrel. Reusing a soiled patch can redistribute fouling rather than removing it. With 300 patches in a pack, you have plenty for multiple complete cleaning sessions on multiple firearms without worrying about running short.
Will these patches work on both 12 gauge and 20 gauge shotguns?
Yes — Birchwood Casey sizes these patches to work effectively across 12, 16, and 20 gauge bores. The patch dimensions and material thickness provide a snug, friction-generating fit through the bore for all three gauges, ensuring maximum contact with the barrel walls for thorough cleaning and solvent application.
