Frog lube…I thought it was dead

Look up the book Fearless about Adam Brown. My wifes best friends husband carried him down the mountain. He also went to RK motorsports in Charlotte when they were rebuilding his bronco for his kids. I realize you have been on this forum for a long time but dont question me again bro.

First you really should stop while you’re ahead. It makes you even more look like a clown doubling down on a situation where there are only two explanations that jump out at me:

You either explained your sister brothers cousins career and being in a SMU so badly it either makes him look FOS and you believe his BS, or you are just FOS. Either way the way YOU explained it is impossible, and to anyone familiar with those jobs and units it was hilarious….

So really you don't need to throw out your buddies creds, they are not yours and it does nothing to make what you are saying more creditable or interesting. And lets face it when you do start throwing them out chances are you are going to be questioned, so instead of demanding to not be questioned maybe you stop living vicariously through brother cousins college roommates accomplishments.

Im not throwing out my buddies creds. I simply said he doesnt use frog lube and everyone else had to post up. You literally posted a meme.
 
I like the fact I can treat my guns with something other than a dust magnet, ( Grease & Oil ) & still get reliable service..
Any unhappy Frog lube owners can PM me & send any full or partial containers of FROGLUBE 2 Me. 😉 Thank you.

I still have a BUNCH of it from when I had my FFL and a store, and I still use it. Never had any issues.

Oh I’m not questioning you, I’m flat out calling your buddy a liar..
 
Also, while we’re at it. Why does anyone think being a SEAL/Ranger/SF whatever, give you any cred whatsoever when it comes to guns? Unless they are any enthusiast, most of those dudes couldn’t tell the difference between a Glock 17 or 19, or a Surefire or a modlite, they are just tools to them. Seeing “CAG/DEVGRU” in someone’s resumes doesn’t mean anything to me when it comes to guns.

Cool story…let’s get his name.. this can be vetted VERY easily…
 
I was on the FrogLube bandwagon for a good bit, but I had it gum up on me during a duck hunting trip. Since then, I have settled on WeaponShield or Clenzoil.

But...in my experience (which is far less than many of yall) most gun owners will never put the use on a firearm to the point that type of lubrication will actually matter all that much. Most issues I have seen has been due to a lack of lubrication all together and people running BCGs and slides dry. At that point, chapstick or vaseline would have been just as helpful compared to what they were using...nothing.

But I get it, we are gun dudes...we gonna find what we like and stick with it because it works. But for the vast majority of gun owners, what you use isnt nearly as important as you use something at all.

Me, either!!

(But probably for a completely different reason 🤣)
 
@Shooter24 and @Derek8404.

This is a friendly reminder from an owner to knock it the hell off.

If you wish to continue this tirade, so long as no threats are given. Take it to pm.

I like Weaponshield… especially the smell of the paste…
 
I’ve stayed out of this thread but since I’m here….

I used the FLube for a few years. Followed all the directions, heated the parts, used the paste and wiped them clean.

No issue for a couple of years.

Then I cleaned and lubed my truck gun. It stayed behind the seat for about a year. Ended up at an impromptu shoot one night. Grabbed the truck gun and the action was frozen.

I had to use brake cleaner to get it to move. It looked like someone had poured Mt Dew on all the parts.

Haven’t used it since.


Oh, and there are technically only 2 seal teams. All the other numbers are for the movies.
 
I simply said i know a navy seal that doesnt touch the stuff. What you want to make of itis your story. Makes me think this forum is a waste of time

Last warning. The cursing alone in the open forum was a violation of the rules and you know better.

If you had just said that... But, unfortunately, you went on to qualify the guy, which is what I believe brought on the onslaught.

I had tried several lubes, including one I got direct from a company rep at a 3-Gun match. Where most of them "failed" for me is when a gun is left sitting for a while, like in the safe and the carrier eventually evaporates away, they gummed up. I tend to use light coats, basically lube the parts and wipe away the excess, leaving the residual for lube. Sometimes, more to allow for distribution of the lube via the action. For me, TW25B never gums and leaves a lubricative coating when it dries. Not as slick when wet, but not gummy.

The heat thing is interesting. Supposedly it opens the pores of the metal. Many years ago, my brother in-law had an old S&W Model 60 given to him by an old friend. It had some surface rust. My brother in-law worked in metal plating, but he polished all the bluing off with a bench buffing machine and the hit it with WD-40 while it was still "hot". Like you couldn't hold it without gloves hot. He left it in the white and I never saw rust on it again.

I’ve used that same trick with stuff a little better than WD40. But that will work too.

The FLube gummed up on me and there was literally the thinnest layer possible on the gun.

Edited to add it worked great on stuff I used all the time. Just not on something stored.

Just hose your stuff down with a squirt of CLP every now and then and you’re good to go.

I will happily sell all of it I have for %15 off of msrp plus actual shipping. The stuff is hot garbage. Its a win win for you or I can just trash it. I honestly forgot I had it and should have thrown it in the trash a while ago.

Ahhhhh. CLP. I should have never left thee. But I’m back.
 
Like others, I bought into the FL initially and had the gum up issues. It smelled good eh? I applied it like normal lube (ie way too much) and it just gummed up my ARs.

Like others have mentioned the "heat the part(s) up, apply and rub in, cool, and wipe off" is the method to use with this stuff. I have and continue to use this with my Element 2 22lr can and it has made it much easier to clean when I do use the dip. It just doesn't stick as much. I'll continue to use what I have left for this. My AR's that are suppressed now get ALG Go-Juice and it doesn't gum up with all the back blast.

Ounce to ounce, mix is about half the price of CLP.

I’ll see if I can find the link, but Armalite did some testing and found that ATF works great for both removal of carbon deposits and a lube. IIRC, they also gave high marks to 20w synthetic motor oil as a lube.
