    SEAL 1 CLP liquid / Paste / aerosol.

    Does anyone have any experience with these products? The liquid and paste smell like FrogLube, I just would like to know how it compares. Pros and Cons on both, of you have experience comparing the two. I have used FL, but SEAL 1 is much less expensive.

    I didn't see any threads, and I apologize if I missed it somewhere..

    Re: SEAL 1 CLP liquid / Paste / aerosol.

    I have limited exp with seal 1, non with frog lube. I got a sample pack(looked like a ketchup pack). It was good. Not enough product for me to make a switch.

    I have been told(maybe incorrectly) that Seal 1 was started by one of the original Frog Lube guys.

    Using a sample

    Just started to use a sample of the Seal 1 from SHOT... so far so good. The carbon breakup is excellent, smell is more than tolerable. To soon to go pro or con on this, but leaning to the favorable.

    It's basically Froglube premium except orange. Priced somewhat less, too.

    Try using the ORANGE search button. Numerous lube threads and discussions about Froglube and comparing to SEAL 1.

    My search-fu must be broken, didn't find any.

    We been using SEAL 1 for over a year with no issues. Think of it as froglube 1.25. Same inventor as FL. Some changes but both FL and SEAL are good to go IMHO. I talked with the the guy who came up with the formulas for FL and SEAL, and he claims that Seal is an improved version, but FL was not interested in the upgrade. Still, both are GTG, it is just a matter of cost for us, and SEAL is cheaper.

    I haven't tried Seal 1, just frog lube. Got a few sample packets at a gun show. Ran it in my LMT upper. Did OK the first few times. Last time to my outdoor range, temps in 40s, the bolt wouldn't go into battery after firing a shot. Happened several times, all with the first round from a magazine. Finally I stripped off the FL and wet it down w/ CLP. Was GTG from then on.

    I realize this is a very small sample size, but ... I've heard it didn't work well in cold temps (gelling?). I didn't think that 40s were all that cold.

    At least in my environment (which is southern VA, so go figure), I'm not completely sold on FL. If Seal 1 is an updated version, I wouldn't mind trying it, but I wouldn't trust it 100% right out of the package.

    I have run both Fireclean and FrogLube down to -25F in several AR's and it hasn't caused an issue at all. Very weird that 40F would cause an issue. I liberally coat my BCG's, but I do spread it around pretty thin. With Froglube and Fireclean it doesn't need to be dripping off.
