I know its not supposedto be used on your goggles because it breaks down the lenses, but what about barrels??

Ammonia breaks down paint extremely well so i was wondering if a rag dampened with it would be ok to use inside the barrel/porting to clean out any residue from breaks(not that i ahve many). I realize that you would probobly have to send some water down afterward or you would run the risk of excexxive breaking from the ammonia breaking down the paint while firing, but i just want to hear any infirmation/opinions people have on the subject, thanks

I think it should be fine.

Just squeegie it dry afterwards...its not that the ammonia is gonna break paint, think about how short the time period when the ball is in the barrel is...but liquid in your barrel always hurts accuracy.

Ammonia, it breaks down regular paint, but remember that the paint fill in paintballs is water based. just water works fine.
