Jamiethesquid Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Ear wax...always handy... Do you find that the Ear Wax slows down the slide in cold weather? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckaroo45 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Seems like most people are saying why bother when there are so many superior synthetics available and I agree. I use Mobil 1 when I'm out of Slip 2000 EWL which ain't often. ( ) D shooter - A poser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatJones Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 There is some really good information regarding firearms lubrication, especially as it applies to non-gun specific oils, at this link: http://www.grantcunningham.com/lubricants101.html I've settled on ATF for most uses.

ltdmstr Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I catch the drippings from the red Mobil 1 I have in my grease gun and put it in a little squeeze bottle. Works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodder Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I use 1part ATF-1 part kroil, and 2 parts Mobil synthetic gear lube. Has worked great for years and stays where you put it on the gun. Even in the Florida heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPDGG Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) fwiw: Get a gallon bucket: - Gather all the firearm lubricants you have left from over the years, add any left over Kroil/auto/diesel/automatic trans fluid/snake, etc. oil, and shake it all up = Super Lube. Done To thick: Thin it with Hoppes9 To Thin: Add White Lithium Grease . . . . . wait, I need to delete this before someone bottles it and calls it "FProgKlean1" Edited June 18, 2014 by SPDGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willz Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) Hey, Hey,Hey!!!!! Without Gun Lube discussions there would be no internet!!! It is what we do when there is no new glock bashing going on!!! Just like 9mm vs 45 and Fram vs Wixx and all others, 1911 vs glock, Dino oil vs Synthetic... it will never stop. Flat earth and all that... Edited June 18, 2014 by Willz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endurokids Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Valvoline Synthetic grease cut with Rotella T to your preferred viscosity. I got the idea from the Slide Glide standard that I won at a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
