Froglube Any Good?

[Flopsweat]

I use Corrosion X, Lucas and also Valvoline. Never had an issue with any of them. Light coating of any one of them works for limited storage or even longer storage.



Valvoline is my main for AKM or SKS.

Motor oil is probably the most popular gun oil in the world.

I guess we all have different experiences with it….

Motor oil is probably the most popular gun oil in the world.

It's the high temp synthetic grease. Even a light coat on the bolt of an AK and within one magazine it's lubed up everywhere

Frog Lube is meant to be wiped off 100%. Anyone that complains it thickens up did not finish the job. I only use Frog Lube and Slip 2000, no need for cancer here

Was hot shiit in the mid-late 2000's when magpul DVD's were too.

I tried it on all our frogs and they still made that croaking sound, so I just don't bother any more.

Slip2000, now that's the schnizz

I have like half or it could be as little as a quarter of the little jar (of the paste) left if you want to just have it to try it out. Saves you money and you can see if you like it or not.

When I used it a few times Id use my GFs hair dryer to heat the gun and paste to liquify it so it'd smooth out over the firearm wear parts.

I use grease now so I no longer need it nor use it. Yours if you want it @Mono1

Ill check and see how much is left when I get home to see if its a tangible amount for you.

I mainly use Ballistol or Mobil 1 full synthetic but I've heard froglube is good.

I just put my guns under the freightliner. Eventually the detroit leaks enough oil to lubricate everything.

Thanks, ZA I actually have some and a variety of other stuff too. I was cleaning my guns yesterday after coming home from DRRC, and I just started wondering about it so I posted. There was a great video that a member posted back on the first page that seems really informative.

If someone's got a youtube login, put a comment on that Project Farm video and ask him to throw RadcoLube in the next test. Never heard of it but it sounds like it's worth checking out.

Here's another cheap option for grease versus oil. It was a few years ago but someone did extensive testing on different preservation solutions and rated this pretty high. It's also cheap.

Here's an old article about it(and others): https://www.fieldandstream.com/pages/few-kind-words-about-grease/

I mostly use on my tools at work. I work around corrosive chemicals and this works pretty good to help my tools from rusting (I rub it on and wipe it off) for a decent amount of time.

Big fan of frog lube here. But I did notice on the first AR I bought (used) I over-applied and had build up. It took a few cleanings, but I stuck with the frog lube and have not had an issue since.

All my new firearms have started their life with frog lube and I've yet to have any issues at all.

Hot or cold, Frog Lube is proven to protect against corrosion

You have to read the instructions carefully with Frog lube. It works best being baked into the metal. Before I got smart I had several experiences with a sticky bolt/slide and malfunctions induced as a result because I had put frog lube on like any other lube but it is not designed to be applied that way.
