i wouldnt use it just as a cleaner. it's good because it's a CLP type product. if you're going to use it as a dedicated cleaner then get a good dedicated cleaner.

Tri flow or super lube, both contain teflon, which is supposed to be good, I guess. Also white lithium grease or automotive grease with moly for slides and sears etc.
Works damn good in my experience. Sure cleaned out my Mosin barrel after I let it really soak in.
I like eezox and run mobile one in my ar-15.

I'm curious.
CLP evaporates away in a matter of days without use and when firing it is gone within in minutes. Is this not an issue? Are the lubricating properties in the material left behind after the liquid part goes bye-bye?
Serious question - not being sarcastic. I used to use CLP almost exclusively but it's drying out so quickly always bothered me a great deal.
I pretty much use Ballistol exclusively for cleaning and lubing. IMO Ballistol is tough to beat for general lubing. Occasionally I will use grease on 1911s and certain other tight fitting guns. Terta Gun Grease or Slide-Glide Lite or probably my favorites for heavy duty lubrication.
He's right #9 is a cleaner, not a lubricant. If that's all you have best invest a few bucks in a lubricant that strikes your fancy and has been mentioned here.
G96. Like the smell.
