I over oil my guns...I think they like to run a little on the wet side.
I use the Break Free bottle - with the applicator on all of it.../ I don't bathe them in it....but I use quite a bit ..and I don't wipe it off the internals. But I lube the barrel lug, the barrel retention notches in the slide, the top of the barrel, the bushing ...pretty liberally.
After I reassemble the gun, I will use a Q tip ....around the edges of the trigger if I get excess seeping out ...or around the thumb safety if I get excess there. I don't want oil running into the mag well - so when I clean in there / I wipe it down with a patch.
After I reassemble the gun ....I rack it 6 or 8 times....and wipe the excess off the back end of the slide with a paper towel and gun goes back in the safe. On the overall outside of the gun...I just wipe it down with a paper towel...make sure all the excess is off it.
