1sickPuppy Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Anyone use froglube on their CZ 75? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Targetpractice Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Tried froglube on several occasions. Not a fan of it. Its a pain to apply. You have to heat it to melt it. In the warmer months it work ok. The colder months i had malfunctions on guns that never malfunctioned before. Removed it and went back to traditional gun cleaner and oil. Never had a problem again. Only good thing about it was it smelled nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bthoefer Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I fix guns for a living and froglube causes more malfunctions than all other lubes combined. Stay away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeinctown Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Slide glide for me. Incredibly slick, stciks to whatever you touch it to, but still wipes away without much hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunsen Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Tried it once and was fine all summer. As soon as fall hit not even winter it stuck everything together on a 50 deg morning. Never again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v1911 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) It's organic. Meaning it will break down at some point. It's also mint scented coconut oil. You're paying out the nose for snake oil. Edited September 5, 2016 by v1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're paying out the nose for snake oil. Don't forget that if you get any petroleum based lube on the gun it will cause polymerization (aka solidify) frog lube.

Does it work on the outside of the slide to seal the bluing from humidity? Does polymerization seal the blue from humidity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does polymerization seal the blue from humidity? No. Polymerization is just a fancy way of saying that the oils solidify. There is almost zero corrosion protection. If you are worried about protecting the finish I'd personally recommend Lucas Extreme Duty gun oil. When I switched to it I stopped having issues with rust spots on the hammer of my practice gun.

CookieTheSwede Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Problem with froglube is you need to apply it then wipe it ALL off. If you can see it you did it wrong. If you use the paste and get in small areas (like firing pin holes) you are not going to have a good time in the cold. I have switched to the extreme version. It is slicker than a minnows pecker.
