    Fireclean vs EWL vs Froglube

    Getting ready to assemble some parts. I have no experience with any of the listed lubes. If you could pick any lube to use on a new build what would be your first pick?

    Froglube. It doesn't stink, so I can clean my weapons while sitting on the couch and my wife doesn't bitch, and carbon runs from it like it was Chuck Norris. And if you really wanted to, it's safe to eat it.

    Fireclean. It's been reported by many to work as advertised when used as directed. Less tedious application and reapplication too.

    Froglube for me also.

    Fireclean seems to be he latest tier 1 approved whale sperm.

    I'm still using Slip 2000 products without a complaint. 30 wt at the bench, EWL at the range, and 725 and carbon cutter for the rare cleaning.

    Their marketing also leaves me the least disgusted. Most everything that has come out after Slip has been marketed in pretty squirrelly ways IMO.

    I still use Slip 2000 EWL, but have been using Froglube on my handguns as of late. Both have worked well for me. I have a bottle of Fireclean but have yet to use it.

    same here. it does make the internals "slick" , it's easier to use, and cleans up faster than FL. I still use frog lube on steel external parts to prevent corrosion.

    I love FrogLube, haven't tried FireClean yet but I hear it is great also.

    I love Fireclean. Less of a hassle than Frog Lube, and it works excellent. It is also non toxic like Frog Lube. It is also cheaper because you don't need to use so much, and heat it up, then strip it off with a solvent and reaply etc etc.....Once you use it, you may never use anything else.

    I use fireclean to clean the guns and froglube to lube them.

    Seems to work well.

    If applied correctly in the first place, you never need to "strip and reapply" FrogLube. I have ~6,500 rounds through one of my AR builds that has been treated, cleaned, and lubricated with FrogLube since day one and I have not needed to use any solvents anywhere and it is much cleaner and smoother running than past builds that I used petroleum based solvents and oils on. With that said, I'm not claiming it's any better than Fireclean (I haven't used that product), but your information about FrogLube usage is incorrect.

    I have a bunch of Froglube samples if someone wants to try it out.
