I've been told FMJ does not do well when used on traps that will go in the water. Does FMJ come off easily with a pressure washer at a car wash, or is there a better way? Why do I carry 10mm? Because shooting twice is just silly.

Several have mentioned that it is a stellar coating for water traps. Would the ol' vinegar trick work to remove this FMJ stuff? Why do I carry 10mm? Because shooting twice is just silly.
