    I know George Fennell, and while I disagree with some of what he places importance on, I trust that that test was performed to the best of his ability to be non-bias in operating the machine. Like him, agree with him, or not, the man isn't a liar. He may not be 100% correct 100% of the time, but a liar, he is not.

    Let me recommend the EWL 30, the standard is a little to thin for my tastes.

    I did a burn off test, and ewl 30 left a ton of deposits, while regular ewl left nada

    How did you perform your burn test? I haven't experienced any problems in my AR. Just expanding my knowledge.

    You could be seeing the clay thickener. It's used in almost all greases.

    Makes sense. I just know when I use clp without it, I get less hard deposits on the bolt tail, fwiw

    My Dad uses EWL. This past weekend I went out and did some shooting with him and just for the hell of it, decided to try the EWL out. I'm a Weaponshield guy, and I'll continue using it, but fwiw the EWL worked well for me.

    I've tried both and found the ewl remains slick while the ws got gritty and gummy, is the most accurate way I can word it.

    Damn, that's the exact reason why I quit using Froglube and started with weaponshield. Although I haven't run into any gumming up issues with weaponshield, if I did I wouldn't have a problem going to EWL. Seems like good stuff.

    I meant it carbon fouled and dried up faster than ewl. Not that it went bad in storage or on the weapon.
