Lubricants and oils

#1

Post by hy »

What lubricants and rust prevention oils is everyone currently using? I'm currently using G96 Complete Gun Treatment as a lubricant and Tuf Cloth to prevent rust.

I use Hoppes #9 lubricant to prevent rust, and breakfree to oil the action. This is because I keep #9 around the house for our firearms, and I have access to lots of BF due to us tax payers, not because they're the best. They work great for those purposes. RKBA!

Breakfree! It is all I use on my blue steel guns here in SW Florida for over 13 years and NEVER any rust, always smooth actions.

Breakfree CLP for cleaning and Militec-1 for lube and storing. It doesn't attract lint like most others.

I've always found a wipedown with Zoom-Lube to work extremely well. In case you look, there are two grades: machinery and high-speed.

The machinery grade is a light yellow, and I recommend it instead of the high-speed, clear, variation.

The container comes with a nice little telescoping spout to place oil, making oiling easier.

Keepin' it real...real sharp, that is.
