FrogLube Professional Grade Super Degreaser

I bought into froglube back into 2012/13 period when I really used the product. I liked it so much that I would endorse it to everyone. Until I pulled out a stored rifle and found it was glued shut. I also found rifles that were store a while worked sluggish compared to the butter smoothness of a first application.So I stopped froglube and used other products until about a year ago when I ran out and decided to give froglube a chance. At the time of my first experience not a whole lot of info on the sticky goo that happened. Now with a few years in I found a fairly abundant info on why the stickiness happened. The problem is old cleaning products and carbon residue collects in certain places on the firearm and froglube interacts with that. Apparently it makes it sticky but I’m not sure if I believe that or not. To do my own testing I took some petrol clp and mixed it with some froglube. And for test case I put some froglube by itself. After a few days I noticed the clp petrol mixed froglube indeed turned gummy and the froglube by itself did not. So I decided to buy the solvent and completely sprayed everywhere.It’s been a year now since doing this and froglube has worked like magic. No sticky and no gumming up. I did not do the crazy deep cleaning where I punched out everything. All I did was sprayed it with solvent and used qtips for the hard to reach places. I really like froglube now and highly recommend buying both the solvent and paste products.

So I know most people are in one of two camps, either “FrogLube is the greatest thing ever” or “it’s snake oil.” So all I can do is tell people about my experience with this and let them decide for themselves what’s best for them. Let me start by saying I don’t use this on my antique guns, I had read that there is some issues with old seasoned guns where the petroleum based oils deep inside the metal reacts negatively with the Frog Lube and creates kind of a gummy surface. So I avoided that happening and I only use this on my new guns, especially ones that I use a lot. Let me start by telling you I shoot a lot. So my prep with this is pretty straight forward, I begin by breaking down my firearm I want to treat and I completely degrease it with the FL Super Degreaser. Basically what I’m trying to do is get all the old oil off the firearm. I then heat the metal with a heat gun and wipe CLP over all metal parts. I then wipe any standing oil off and in the hard to reach parts I use a head gun to blow the oil out. I let the gun parts dry and then wipe everything down with a terry cloth almost buffing the surfaces. In my opinion this is one time deal with a new firearm, I don’t ever mix different types of gun cleaning oils. So after that initial breakin heat treating I seldom do it again for that firearm, I just clean with the CLP and occasionally with with the Frog Lube cleaner.My FL test: Last year I wanted to experiment with FL so I took my Beretta Outlander and I did a full strip and heat treat on it. I then used it for an entire season without cleaning it once. I shot a few rounds of Skeet and trap, I ducked hunted and literally every single weekend from mid October to the end of January I upland hunted. In the dirt, mud and 15 degree temperatures I had zero issues with the gun. Then at the end of the season I cleaned it and I was shocked by how easy all of the fowling wiped out of the barrel. It took no time at all, even on the gas port which on the Beretta Semi Autos are notorious for getting filthy. It all just wiped off with CLP. I had zero corrosion and the barrel was spotless. There was no scrubbing stuck on fowling, literally it was no difference then a normal cleaning that I would do after coming back from shooting a single round of skeet. It was perfect.So in my scouring of the internet I’d like to hit on a couple of points that might help people when thinking of going the FrogLube route:-Use with newer guns that don’t have years and years of oil build up-Fully strip down and degrease the firearm prior to using a FrogLube product-Don’t mix other types of gun oils and cleaners with FrogLube-Don’t over oil and wipe any excess FrogLube off after cleaningHope this helps

I saw the impressive videos on Youtube in which Larry strips down firearms like Glocks and places them in their degreaser/water solution for 15 minutes and then supposedly pulls out a squeaky clean component that miraculously passes a "white glove" swab test to prove just how clean the parts were.In my own experience with their super degreaser product, I followed the instructional video, however I removed my striker components from my slide prior to the soak which they did not. I used the suggested 1:1 ratio of product and water, even though my firearm was not all that dirty as it had maybe 75 rounds through it from a quick training session several days prior. That being said, there was obviously fouling on the breech face and bottom of the slide, which are the usual areas that get dirty.In their video, they remove the pristine components from the solution after a mere 15 minute soak, and show the camera how all the fouling just fell off the parts and the once-clear solution is now murky with a layer of fouling sitting on the bottom of the container.After 15 minutes, my solution and parts looked the same. I sloshed the parts around to agitate the solution in an attempt to get the fouling to just fall off, with no results. I continued to let the parts soak for another 30 minutes. No murky solution, no fouling/particulate falling off the parts and sitting on the bottom. I took the parts out and they all had an oily feeling to them and were not any cleaner than prior to the soak so I proceeded to scrub them down and clean them the old fashioned way.I then tried the same process with a bolt carrier group from my AR, which was considerably more dirty as there are harder to reach places that I could not get to with my typical cleaning tools. In my head I was thinking "maybe the pistol was just already too clean to get that dramatic cleaning effect seen in the videos." Nope. I again let the parts sit for even longer than demonstrated in the instructional videos with no visible effect. As with the pistol parts, I still ended up having to bush out my regular cleaning kit to remove the fouling.In the end, I could have saved myself the money and about and hour and a half of waiting if I had just said no to this stuff and used my normal kit and tried/trusted Ballistol. I'm not sure if Amazon will issue a refund as there is nothing left to return. The 4oz bottle is ridiculously small and all of it was used to create just barely enough solution to submerge my parts.

IT WOTKS!

Pros: No bad odor, doesn't stick on hands. Feels like water. But i know it works and isn't water since I tried this on a new pistol and still got a lot of residue off. Comes with a screw and a spray cap.Cons: None
