Silicone Gun & Reel Cloth

The Hoppe's Silicone Gun & Reel Cloth is purpose-built for firearms and fishing reel maintenance, offering anglers and shooters a dual-use solution for protecting metal surfaces from corrosion and moisture. Whether you're storing firearms between hunting trips or maintaining saltwater reels after a day on the water, this flannel cloth addresses a critical need: preventing rust and fingerprint acids that degrade precision equipment in harsh environments. The compact, lightweight design makes it ideal for tackle boxes, gun safes, or range bags where space is premium.

The silicone impregnation creates a protective barrier that neutralizes damaging acids from skin oils and repels moisture infiltration—critical in marine and humid climates where corrosion accelerates rapidly. Unlike untreated cotton, the silicone treatment actively bonds to metal surfaces, leaving a thin protective film that resists salt spray, humidity, and condensation buildup. The flannel weave safely polishes chrome, stainless steel, and blued finishes without scratching, making it suitable for both delicate reel components and firearm barrels, actions, and springs.

Serious anglers who fish saltwater or coastal freshwater environments benefit most from routine reel maintenance using this cloth, as regular silicone treatment extends bearing life and prevents corrosion in baitcasting, spinning, and conventional reels. Gun owners storing firearms long-term or in humid conditions will find the proactive acid-neutralizing action superior to dry cloths alone. At just 0.06 lbs and measuring 6.8 x 4.15 inches, the Hoppe's Silicone Gun & Reel Cloth fits easily into any maintenance kit and requires no additional solvents or compounds—simply wipe after use or storage.
