Re: Frog Lube.
its all i use on my pistols, shotguns and carbines. great stuff. it seeps into the metal so you can basically run guns almost dry and it self lubricates as it heats up. know the guy who owns it really well. if you do the prescribed pre-treat your gun is so easy to clean. i have a gallon at home.

Re: Frog Lube.
My brother and his best friend use it on their AR's and pistols and swear it's easier to clean, they have no malfunctions when we compete so I at least know it works. One benefit is that it makes your gun smell wintergreen fresh.
I didn't want to deal with stripping all the lube off with alcohol and doing the pre-treat, so I'm still using CLP.

Re: Frog Lube.
Frog Lube is great. I degreased all my stuff, heated it up by laying on black asphalt for about 25 minutes put it on the metal and let it sit in the sun for about 10 more minutes. Its awesomely easy to clean, it doesn't add any of its own fouling and keeps the carbon on top of the lube so it wipes away clean

Re: Frog Lube.
A little bias here since I just signed on to become a distributor of FrogLube, but only considered it because the product is so awesome.
I had heard about it and been following the posts online about the product, but did not want to put money our considering I had just bought a new cleaning kit with CLP recently. After been given the Testing and Evaluation kit I spent a night stipping all the carbon from my weapons with the liquid.
It cleaned up pretty good, though took quite a bit of prep time to ensure you get all the old carbon off.
I used a hairdryer as had been recommended by some guys to warm up the metal slightly and coated my guns from top to bottom.
Took an AR, H&K SR9 glock 19 and 1911 on a shooting trip and we put a lot of rounds down. Got back home, took a cleaning cloth and the carbon just wiped off. Took me minutes to clean each. I reapplied the paste and am good to go.
I was having small issues using cheaper ammunition on some weapons, the better lubrication solved it all.
I will never use another product again. I have also been using it for other products. My knife collection, the sheaths in the safe.. all sorts of potential.
Not trying to sell my product here, but if you doubted the product at all, try it once. Order from anywhere you wish. Give it a try. If you have concerns let me know and I can pass them up the chain. If anybody would like to see more info from testing done, feel free to get in touch.

Re: Frog Lube.
I guess I will be the dissenter. As a cleaner, I found it to do virtually nothing in regards to barrel cleaning. I had two dirty .22's that I used it on. I warmed up the barrels with a hair dryer, ran a nylon brush with the liquid, let it sit a while, and wiped with typical patches. Almost nothing was on the patches which seemed odd as these buggers get dirty. So I cleaned with some plain ole Hoppes and the patches came out nasty as expected.
I did warm and lube up the same rimfires after doing the denatured alcohol wipe down and will give it another go but so far I am not impressed.

RobG, sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with FrogLube. It has worked for me and most others I have spoken to. Might just be that you need to use it a few times on the barrel for the barrel to get a nice seal and help block future carbon from really sticking on there.
But if your regular product works, awesome.
Glad to hear others have had positive experiences.

Re: Frog Lube.
The first thing I do now when I buy a gun is strip it down, heat and clean all the metal parts to get out any lube, lather them in froglube, throw them on a tray and then into the oven at 120F for an hour or so. Take it out, wipe it down, reassemble and you're good. First time I shot my ak with corrosive 5.45 I just soaked the barrel and gas system, washed off the other stuff, left the gun in the sun, and my 4th dry patch had only the faintest amount of carbon, and that was after 200+rnds. Everything else just wiped off with no scrubbing at all, then reapplied froglube, left the parts in the sun a little, and reassembled. Hasn't gotten much dirtier since.
Joe, any reason you don't run them on bolt guns?

Re: Frog Lube.
If you shoot a Geissele 2-stage, suppressed, then this stuff is the cat's meow. Super-slick 1st stage goes on and on.....No grit.
Once you start to feel a little "filthy resistance" on the charge handle, just dab a little on the bolt carrier raceways and you're good to go. Really cuts down on obligatory suppressed AR cleaning intervals.

Re: Frog Lube.
Shit cracks me up. There's only so many chemicals that exist for a small company to use. These guys are not chemists.
Frog Lube is Natural Lube 1000 "Bore Butter" with green tint. If you like your Bore Butter green and way more expensive (because you'll buy anything), then this is the stuff for you.

two gun i'm so glad you know what it is, i know the guy and that is not what it is, i know the whole backstory. you are completely wrong.
you guys i have used frog lube on work guns ran hundreds and hundreds of rounds a day the stuff works just fine. you just don't use it like the other lubes, you don't need to leave a ton in the action like CLP. you rub it on and then wipe it off. but what do i know i don't shoot that much (sarcasm)

I know the smell is the same, and I have a ton of Wonderlube from my 8 and 6-bore days. I'm gonna do a comparo!

Re: Frog Lube.
Yes, whatever, a natural lube that seasons the barrel! That happens to smell, feel and taste just like well, whatever. Good luck with that. Me, I'll stick with rust inhibitors that cause cancer. I like it that way.

Re: Frog Lube.
I use M7 Pro and it seems to work ok although I think that you have to leave it in the bore a little longer. Anyone compare it to frog lube? I like the idea on non-toxic cleaners.

Re: Frog Lube.
Used Frog Lube for the first time to clean my new TRP .45. I had fired about 150 rounds threw the pistol, before I cleaned it. Warmed up the barrel with a hairdryer for a minute or so and ran a patch with frog lube down the pipe, let it sit for a couple minutes. Then ran a plastic bore brush down the pipe four or five times. Then ran a clean patch down the tube. The frog lube seemed to disinigrate the carbon and then after a couple paches the barrel was spotless. Repeated process on the rest of the pistol.
It was nice not to have to stink up the house with solvents, it had a nice smell to it. You can feel how greasy this stuff is and I have no doubt that it will lube and protect the weapon well. I felt it did a great job as a cleaner.
I will report back after shooting and cleaning the weapon again.

Why are you cleaning a pistol barrel? It's been years since I've done anything like that, and I shoot pistol at least every other weekend.

Really just wanted to get it coated with the frog lube, and see how the frog lube did as a carbon cleaner. I generally clean a pistol about every 500 rounds.

Re: Frog Lube.
Frog lube is a damn good product, but personally I use hi-temp lithium wheel bearing grease on my AK, AR and pistols. Lasts just as long and does as good of a job at a fraction of the cost, but doesn't double as a bore cleaner.

Re: Frog Lube.
Well apparently you can clean, lube, or eat for a quick pick me up. I was at my dealer when some lady came in talking about this stuff and ate some of it to show how natural it was. I shocked! It sure smells good. I said it smells just like icyhot so maybe you guys that shoot the big bores all day can just rub some of this stuff on your sore shoulders at the end of the day as well.
I was interested in the ingredients since it was " All natural" but they were not listed. Smells like camphor is in it.
I have read some good things about it. Maybe ill try some out.

Re: Frog Lube.
I tried it on my TRP a month ago and am really happy with it. It doesn't seem to collect dust and crap like my other lubes/cleaners. My wife likes it since it doesn't have a bad smell like some of my other cleaners. I am in the process of switching a few of my pistols over.

Re: Frog Lube.
so right now i use militec how does frog lube compare?
been pretty happy with militec. anybody tried both or should i just bite the bullet and order some frog lube. i notice the mili doesnt really penetrate. it does say it is a metal conditioner.
my clean up seems pretty easy.

Re: Frog Lube.
I've been using it for a year or so, with very favorable results. I know the founder, and wanted to support his startup so I tried the products. I've stayed a customer because it really works well for me on pistols and rifles. Don't know that it is the best product out there, or a perfect solution; but when I consider that it works at least as well as anything else I've tried AND it is more user friendly and less toxic than anything else I've used - that is good enough for me.
We all know those guys that treat it as a badge of honor they have been lubing their entire armory with the same quart of Penzoil for the past 10 years. Great - a product doesn't have to be for everybody. But Frog Lube works, it works better than most other products, the clean smell/not buring thru my skin feature is a nice bonus, and it isn't that expensive. Give it a try.
I'll skip the eating it experiment though.

I started it on my bolt gun, then the M-4, Sig's and Glocks. It is the best product I have ever used, cleaning is a breeze. Just wipe it off and you're good to go. Try some.

Re: Frog Lube.
I decided to give it a try about a week ago. I got the liquid version and stripped apart one of my ar's that needed cleaning and lubed it back up with the frog. Before this I had only really used CLP, and it ran great with that stuff. When I applied it, it did not have that oily shiny look that you get with straight oil, it looked congealed. I took it out today and shot about 200 rounds in about an hour. After about 15 rounds it started to get that "oily" look on the bolt. It ran fine for the rest of the rounds, but most impressive for me was when I was done, it still had that oily look. Normally the oil starts to heat up and burn off. I took the rifle home, let it cool off and took the bcg out and it looked like I had just oiled it up after a good cleaning. Now maybe this is exactly what mil-tec does or other similar products, i've just never used them. But im sold on the stuff for sure. And like others have said, it smells minty fresh and you could eat the crap if you wanted too.

I took it out today and shot about 200 rounds in about an hour. After about 15 rounds it started to get that "oily" look on the bolt. It ran fine for the rest of the rounds, but most impressive for me was when I was done, it still had that oily look. Normally the oil starts to heat up and burn off. I took the rifle home, let it cool off and took the bcg out and it looked like I had just oiled it up after a good cleaning. Now maybe this is exactly what mil-tec does or other similar products, i've just never used them. But im sold on the stuff for sure. And like others have said, it smells minty fresh and you could eat the crap if you wanted too.

As a cleaner, I found it to do virtually nothing in regards to barrel cleaning. I had two dirty .22's that I used it on. I warmed up the barrels with a hair dryer, ran a nylon brush with the liquid, let it sit a while, and wiped with typical patches. Almost nothing was on the patches which seemed odd as these buggers get dirty. So I cleaned with some plain ole Hoppes and the patches came out nasty as expected.
I did warm and lube up the same rimfires after doing the denatured alcohol wipe down and will give it another go but so far I am not impressed. </div></div>
I have noticed the same for barrel cleaning, I really wouldn't call it CLP just LP that's what it does best.
I was introduced to it at an AR-15 armorers course put on by High Caliber Training and was impressed with its lubrication performance to say the least. I have been using it and selling it in my shop for several months now and have had nothing but good said about it by customers who I have cleaned and lubed their AR's. I tell them that the first lube is on me and after I treat their bolt they always come back and buy more Frog Lube
RobG, don't dump it out yet use it as a lube and give it a chance I think you will change your mind.
