This goes hand in hand with the gun rust remedy thread so if it needs to be merged, go ahead. I thought this was a very good test of many oils/protectants.

Awesome test. So what are the Nay Sayers gonna say now??
Frog lube is the Champion no question about it.
Anyone who still sticks with their "old reliable" is in outright denial.
I really do think this is a viral marketing attempt by Frog Lube. I wouldn't put anything past those carnies.
test fails, OP didn't test blood.
blood is nature's lubricant.
I'm gonna call bull shit on this.
The fact I had to spray more then one gun with wd40 to get it to run at a shoot cause of failures caused by frog lube.
It's fine when you first put it on . But after it's on for some time it becomes thick. Or if it's really cold out.
Stopped my 1911 from fully locking up in the winter I had to whack the slide home a bunch of times . After 2-3 mags when it warned up it ran.
Xds45 didn't shoot the gun for a few months and the gun had to warm up.
Ar-15 car shoot when it rained really bad bolt wasn't closing and when it did some if the lube on the firing pin was causing light strikes.
My only experience with Frog Lube is second hand. One of the members of my bulls eye team had lubed a Ruger MKIII with it and had it in storage in his safe for about two years. The gun did not rust, but it was gummed up so bad it would not cycle correctly and had to be stripped and cleaned.
Seriously Not to insult, i have to believe either it wasn't applied correctly, or applied excessively, my guess is excessively. Once you make the first application, you need no more, not even a drop, heat the part let it cool and dry and wipe... That's it. Do not apply it like Mobil 1 or some other oil, do not bathe the parts in it and slam the rifle/pistol back together with dripping parts. Your head tells u to keep the parts wet, but Frog lube works best dry, the first application applies an invisible coating. It's great stuff as the test shows, Ive never had gumming, EVER!
I just don't understand the denialists.
Froglube truthers are worse than glock truthers,
It's simple... tests don't lie, it works..... when applied correctly. Mobile 1 belongs in a car not a gun, and apparently most of the "gun Lube" products don't belong in a gun either.
