Vest Lubricant?

[Eric Fletcher S.O.C.]

First of all, I'm eager to try Eric's solution ( pun intended ). Anodized aluminum on anodized aluminum is astonishingly dry. Just the Ghobi Desert of dry.

 

However, if this aquatic goop that Eric has soaks into the top molecular layers of the metal and creates an area of true lubrication, I'd love to try it out.

 

 

 

Frog Lube is pretty damn amazing stuff, it basically does the same thing as seasoning a cast iron skillet, it does seal the pores of the metal (Coated or not) and creates a glass like surface that is dry lubricated. It's the best thing I've ever used on my guns, now after a 1000 round weekend I do nothing more than wipe my gun down and it's clean and still lubricated

 

Would it work for chains ? Curious, because I use Alco Metalube http://alcometalube.com/products.htm

 

Its the grease recommended by Chapman/Leonard for all their dollies..

I use it on my vest - no sound for a year so far, but god help you if you get it on your clothes.

Your method sounds cleaner for sure.

 

Not sure if it works for chains but you could try it

Thanks Eric and Peter, for the advice. I will try the chapstick method first since I have that readily available. Eric, I will PM you with my info to try out that Froglube sample. Again, thanks.
