    ALG Go Juice for Pistol Light Lens?

    Has anyone tried either of the ALG Go-Juice products (original Go-Juice or the 0000 Very Thin Grease) to protect a pistol light lens from tough burned on carbon deposits? Since the 0000 is supposed to be like a grease, I was wondering if it wouldn't be suitable for keeping a thin protective layer on a weapon light lens? Any other recommended products for this?

    If lens is polycarbonate or any kind of plastic, Plexus is a great cleaner/protectant/polish.

    Thanks. The lenses I am looking at are glass.

    I just use chapstick on my lights when I go to the range, and wipe it off when I am done practicing. Depending on the light position, I put it on the lens and any part of the bezel that is exposed. Most of the lights are either on pistols or SBR/SBS where the light is very close to the muzzle. I haven't had any carbon accumulation since I started doing this. On the one light I shot before I started using chapstick (original Inforce WML) I used a pencil eraser to remove most of the carbon from the lens.

    You also can buy a Butler creek clear scope cap and put it on temporarily when you go to the range. Sizes are as follows:

    If carbon bakes on, rub some toothpaste on the bezel and it comes right off.

    Been using the Go-Juice on my TLR 1 lens for several years now. Great barrier, but also works really well as a cleaner to remove carbon with no negative effect to the lens.

    you can use any oil. i've used mobil 1, the crap you get in low end cleaning kits, chapstick in a tube, vaseline, basically whatever is within reach. just don't use saliva, that will dry out and the carbon will bake on.

    Its been said a few times now, but I have always just used chapstick. Its cheap, effective, and I usually always have it on me.
