Gave it a shot and bought just the wipes today. Has a strong minty smell to it. Other people swear by it. They do a process to where they apply it, heat the components applied, and say it shines afterwards. Wipes very clean as well.

Been using it on my competition//range handgun.

The smell goes away pretty quickly -- can't tell that it lubes any better, or lasts any longer, than my regular stuff (Mili-Tec 1).

It is supposed to make cleaning easier. Again -- no difference between this stuff and the Mili-Tec 1 as far as cleaning is concerned.

I've never used any. Thought about buying some to try it, but had a hard time finding it and was kinda pricey. I still use Break Free CLP and Eezox.

Frog Lube is pricey. I'm trying it only because it was recommended by a guy whose opinion on guns I respect.

Eezox is one of the best rust preventive products I've ever used -- but it sure has a strong (to me stinky) odor. Of course, CLP is hard to beat (if I remember to shake the bottle).

Yep. That stuff has a strong aroma but is a great product otherwise.

Ballistol, good enough for Greg Hickok, good enough for me.

I just can't justify paying that much for gun oil. I wanna try royal purple gun oil, anyone try it?

Funny how different people can be. I like the smell of Eezox, ranking it close to Hoppe's #9. OTOH, I can't stand the smell of Ballistol.
