    Really? I got a new 30-30 that came coated in grease. I used froglube to remove it, left it nice, minty and shiny!

    I really like Froglube.
    Funny you mention that. I stick my BCG in the toaster for about a minute or two.

    I ran Froglube exclusively on a DD that had previously been lubed with Slip2000 for a Redback One advanced carbine course and it ran just fine. If it makes it harder to clean, then I'd have no idea because I don't do that nonsense. Lube it. Shoot it. Repeat.

    Yes, you need to remove any silly grease or other lubricants because of how it reacts. Use some type of degreaser or non-chlorinated brake cleaner.

    Keep it simple and hose it down with non chlorinated brake cleaner then treat with Frog Lube

    So, how does it react with other lubricants? Is Fireclean in the same boat?

    According to the website FrogLube will eventually dissolve any petrochemicals present on the gun, but while both are present you won't see the maximum benefits of FrogLube.

    The dollar can of brake cleaner at Wally World or similar store is worth buying 5 or 6 at a time. It is a cheap and easy way to clean or degrease.

    Noveske upper: OEM Lube removal to prep for Frog Lube

    Got some break cleaner from Wally World. Since the gun is brand new - cant I just use Dawn soap?
