Have you used the lube and run a gun hard, as in over 1K rounds in a day or weekend?
I ask because I rarely clean my person guns. A. There is no need to clean guns unless they are close to malfunction and B. I clean enough of them at work that it's the last thing I want to do with my time at home.
There is no such thing as a CLP, a REAL CLP that is. There are good Solvents that can be used for cleaning and there are good Lubes that can be used to , obviously, lube. Rust preventitive has more to do with enviroment and ensuring that the metal is coating with something that doen't allow moisture or a corrosive to touch the bare metal. My Lab Geeks at work also tell me that having an anode or metal that attracts rust or some shit like that close by, it will act as sacrificial lamb by attracting corrosives.
I ran my duty pistol with FL to just shy of 800 rounds in a 3 day instructors course. I ran a carbine to around half that. All I did was run a bore snake through the barrels and put some liquid on the pistol rails and BCG. It works for me. A couple guys at the class had motor oil with them and would just dunk their BCG's. I dont recall then having any malfunctions either.
