Slide Glide

[CQB Dave]

Man I should have been using this stuff years ago. I used Slide Glide both my Kimber Team Match and my Pro Carry hi cap and the results were unbelieveable. I will highly recommend this to eveyone I know.

Dave,

I've been thinking of trying SG myself, What weight or number SG did you use?

Thanks,

I used the lite version. It worked really good.

Brian may include instructions in the jar I ordered Monday, but if not, how much do you put on the slide rails? Do you cover the entire contact area, or just the ends and let it work it's way in?

Thanks, Allen

Just glop it in there. I do the slide rails both top and bottom. This tends to ooze out a bit but so what. I just wipe it off and back into the jar it goes. You don't have to fill up the grooves in the slide, just put a nice coating on it.

Don't forget the locking lugs, bushing, guide rod, etc.

Go to a model store or hobby shop and get a small paint brush. SG has so much surface tension you can just put on a dab and then spread it out and leave a thin sheen on the surface. The small brush is very cool because it makes it so easy to do the rails and rail grooves because it fits right into the groove. You don't waste any lube because you can spread it evenly.

I usually put a good layer on the barrel lugs and feet which get a lot of pressure, and I also spread a thin sheen over the whole barrel because it makes cleaning easier (you just wipe it off). I put it every where except the breech face and feed ramp.
