They covered pretty much all of them, just remember do not use brushes or metal rods in your air guns you MAY damage the barrel....
When running patched through your barrel soak one in googonge first to loosen everything up then run clean dry patches until they come out as clean as they went in....

Not recommending this as I don't know if it actually works but I took 4 Beeman quick cleaning pellets(felt) and suirted a little bit of MC25 EP Weapon Cleaner into each. I then loaded them one at a time with a cheap pellet behind them and fire each, one at a time. I then followed that up with 3, dry felt pellets and a lead pellet. The lead pellets are used to keep from dry fire damage.
Looking from the breech end with the sun shining through it, the bore looked pristine 😊.

I've used nothing but Goo-Gone and it's always done a great job
