I found this to be an EXTREMELY informative thread and thought this would help out a lot of people here.
Over 30 different products were tested. It seems like the best results were from Eezox with Tri Flo, PL10, Corrosion X and Weapon Shield CLP coming in right behind. Now some of these are not lubricants, just made for rust prevention. It’s amazing though how downright horrible some of the popular products faired in the testing.
Go to the thread linked above to read more about how he ran the experiment. But to summarize he sprayed the samples with a water/salt mix (to simulate a worse-case scenario) and even left the samples in the rain a few times...
Here is the final picture after about a week. There are several close-up pics in the thread on m4carbine.net.
Nice grab Stu! Beat me to it.
@Mr.Stu And @DirtyDigz - Rumson is the next town over from me (maybe a 5 minute drive). I can be a middle-man and grab it if you can’t find a time that works for you guys and @Rob0115.
It’s your’s if you’d like. Sorry for the reply, I had a significant health issue to handle. I’m out of town for two more weeks but after that good-to-go.
@Mr.Stu @DirtyDigz my cell # is 973-464-2758. Text me and we can work out times.
again apologize for any inconvenience.
