Hoppe's #9 Plus BP solvent and patch lube or Balistol & Water with Balistol for final oiling.

Regular Hoppe's #9 is for smokeless powder cleanup.

While I use Balistol for all my revolvers and cartridge guns, The Hoppes#9 plus is what I've always used for my front stuffer single shots. That's what I learned on many moons ago and has served me well.

As to how clean, pretty close to spotless is the answer for the single shots. Revolvers & lever guns only get torn down and thoroughly cleaned 3 or 4 times a year.
