June 12, 2026 — Renowned for delivering high-quality gear and accessories for firearm training, cleaning, and transport, Birchwood Casey has announced the expansion of its product lineup with the introduction of several new gun cleaners, all 100% biodegradable.
Dedicated to helping hunters, shooters, and outdoor enthusiasts protect their most valuable gear since 1948, the brand stays true to its roots with the launch of its Synvex™ Copper Cutter, Synvex™ Carbon Cutter, Synvex™ CLP-X Oil, and Synvex™ Bore Wash, a lineup of biodegradable gun cleaners delivering powerful, modern formulations designed to remove fouling with the efficiency of traditional petroleum-based solvents.
Synvex™ Carbon Cutter dissolves heavy carbon and powder buildup on bolts, brakes, and more, and is safe to use on metal, polymer, and coated surfaces. The formula also stays on surfaces long after application, so there’s no need to worry about rapid evaporation.
Synvex™ Copper Cutter offers the simplest way to remove stubborn copper and lead fouling, while also preventing future fouling buildup on everything from bore steel to other sensitive finishes.
Synvex™ CLP-X Oil cleans, lubricates, and protects in one simple step, quickly penetrating the metal surfaces on any firearm, leaving a moisture-displacing, rust-preventing shield that reduces both friction and wear. The synthetic-based formula is also MIL-PRF-63460F-rated, making it appropriate for use on U.S. military weapons.
Synvex™ Bore Wash is safe for use on everything from Cerakote and hydro printing to plastic and wood, breaking down oil, grease, and grime without leaving unwanted residue behind.
“This new line of gun-cleaning products provides a more environmentally responsible way to maintain firearms,” said Jeff Mcnail, VP of Brand Management. “Each is non-corrosive, low-odor, formulated to be safer on skin, and also breaks down naturally over time, which is a win for hunters and shooters alike, regardless of level.”
Created for shooters who demand both reliability and accountability from all their gear, the new lineup proves firearm maintenance can be effective, efficient, and environmentally mindful all at once.
