Froglube

just out of curiosity, how many of you guys are applying the paste to the external metal portions of your firearms?

Paste I dont, fluid I do.


A friend lent me his upper and I stripped it down, cleaned it off, removed dirt grime body, etc. and then FrogLubed her in and out. When I returned it to him he stared at it for a few seconds trying to figure out what was up with it since it looked so nice. I forgot to show him how the water beads off it.

The paste is also a CLP. I really can't figure out why folks can't fathom that the product is the SAME in a different state of matter (carrier).

A CLP...in two different states of matter. Liquid and solid. They are both CLP's.

Buy a small amount of both and see what works best for you.

I guess I traditionally have thought of pasty grease like things for one kind of lubrication, and liquid for others. You are saying I can treat my weapon with both? If this is the case I will grab a bottle to sample for summer shooting and bonfire fun! I guess it just blows my mind to think of cleaning a weapon with paste.

The paste basically turns into a liquid once it heats up. Not sure of an exact temp but body heat is enough to melt it. It's not really a grease.

Haha, its like saturated fat, for guns!

I use the oil purely for the ease of application.

So there is really no benefit in using the paste? The surface still needs to be heated and the fl is absorbed into the metal and solidifies as it cools correct? The liquid would seem easier if this is the case.

If I remember correctly the makers of FL stated liquid is more for cleaning while the paste is for lube but imho its personal preference. I use the liquid as it seeps into everything and FL is FL not matter the form.

Also for anyone interested you can use FL in a can (just make sure your suppressor can be shot "wet"), I run a mini on a sbr and the beginning shots smell like mint and powder lol. Makes clean up really, REALLY easy. Sound reduction wise I didn't hear much of a difference.

Alright, I guess I'm finally going to coat this thing inside out. I just wanted to make sure I didn't have a giant grease-ball for a rifle once I was finished.

Both the FL liquid and paste is a cleaner and lube in one. Just follow the instructions provided or google and apply as instructed. If you do it right, I don't think you'll be sorry. It works great for me on all of my weapons.

I received my froglube kit and the liquid tube was actually solid, is this normal and is there anyway to bring it back to a liquid state or does anyone have a phone number to contact the people at froglube.
