    Froglube

    Being that Froglube is not petroleum based, can it contaminate primers?

    Unknown. It NOT being petroleum based would not rule that out, though.

    I will tell you this - the spray Froglube will **** you up if you spray much of it in an enclosed space. That's what I use on my Solothurn, and it damn near killed me when I sprayed it off in an enclosed basement. I thought I was going to cough up a lung.

    I don't think they make one with spray bottle or can.

    I'd stick with Weapon Shield. Much cheaper and gets the job done.

    Are you talking about this Frog Lube? There is no spray and if there was I doubt it would do anything more than leave a pleasant minty smell in your basement.

    To the OP, are you asking if primers are impervious to Froglube since it isn't a penetrating oil? Froglube is usually in paste form and if you are firing and it's wet then I wouldn't think much could get on the primers for any length of time anyways. I don't see any issues unless you are wanting to soak each round in liquid Froglube...

    Froglube is non toxic and smells like mint Lifesavers.

    If the primers are sealed, couldn't do any more harm than say H2O. Not sure what the concern is ??????

    I think the point the OP is trying to make is what effect it would have on ammunition in magazines etc... should the lube run and get on the ammo and primers.
