Does anybody flush out their rod guide with alcohol after each use? Need to remove the grit before sending it down the barrel? Alcohol to help neutralize any chemical reaction (if using different cleaners) in guide.

I suppose that you could use isopropyl alcohol (99% if you can find it, but don't hold your breath since it's what the meth "labs" need so it's gotten hard to find) to flush out a rod guide. Denatured alcohol could probably be used too, and is easier to find.
All I've ever done is wipe off my rods after each trip down the bore, and not put them down on a likely dirty bench or table. If I change bore cleaning sauce I always use two or three dry patches between them, and when I'm done. That should wipe out the majority of what's inside the guide.

Rubbing Alcohol
I dunk my rod guide with 90% Rubbing alcohol after each cleaning episode. Also wipe off cleaning rods after each use.
Also wipe cases off after re-sizing with alcohol on a towel.
Dont get alcohol in primer pocket--Primers wont ignite.
Its non toxic to humans and cleans great and is relative cheap.
I've never had any problems--Good alternative to some expensive and toxic solutions.
