FWIW, this isn't exactly a review, but a second-hand one from an armorer that I thought fit best in this topic.
A relative of mine just started with a federal police department in D.C. This may be because he's a rookie, but they go to an appointed location to clean their weapons, which is considered on the clock.
I asked him what they used for cleaning, and he wasn't sure but it sounded pretty standard to me. I sent him a bottle of Hoppe's Elite (also sold as M-Pro-7, it's original name but now licensed to Hoppe's) and one of Rem-Oil, with a note about their advantages and that he could easily get both at any Wal-Mart.
When he brought these to the appointed place, the department armorer noticed what he was using, inquired about it, observed it, and was quite impressed. A big spirit-lifter to the youngest rookie on the department who otherwise knows less than everyone else, but also a high compliment to the products from the armorer.
