I don't think it's that, as much as people feeling ripped off due to the price markup. After all, they're selling vegetable oil at nearly the same price as Krytox. And/or that people could use an improvised variation at a vastly lower cost. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

And/or that people could use an improvised variation at a vastly lower cost. And Crude is 55/gal and Mobil 1 is selling at for $8/quart. Better still, people are paying $/1 16oz bottle for WATER! So many more causes and crusades to take up, especially when noone even knows FIREClean's mark-up. People are pulling guesses out of their arse and then getting excited like they know something. |

I use Fireclean and am watching this with some interest because I, too, am concerned about long term gumming. My dad was a research scientist and used photospectrometers all day long, with a little bit of mass spectroscopy. ALL those things do is tell you the elemental components of a compound. In the case of the photospectrometers, you dissolved the samples in acid, injected them into a plasma "flame" (about 8000 degrees) bounced the light off a diffraction grating and measured the wavelengths. Each element has a particular signature and the resulting analysis shows you the elemental composition of the compound. This much hydrogen, this much lead, this much arsenic, this much aluminum. Only elements. They don't do SHIT for distinguishing the molecular arrangements in organic compounds. They can't. If two compounds are made up of carbon and hydrogen they will show up pretty similar. Unless you can determine molecular weight, just knowing that you've got carbon and hydrogen isn't going to tell you the chain length or saturation or any chemical properties. Let's look at the one obvious difference between Fireclean and Crisco-- Crisco is a hydrogenated fat and solid at room temperature. Fireclean is not. We don't have to make any statement beyond that to know that Fireclean is not Crisco. That said, maybe it is just a highly refined, highly purified vegetable oil. Frankly I am very curious myself. I am well aware of how vegetable oils gum in a high heat setting, I see it all the time with cast iron skillets, saute pans and my French cooktop (which is seasoned with heated peanut oil). I don't heat my BCG to 500 degrees, but high temps are certainly present in the chamber, barrel, etc. The BIG QUESTION is simply this: has Fireclean somehow found a way to prevent gumming and oxidation? Their patent actually seems to claim that this gumming is part of the carbon protection. Yikes.... I'll say this: so far so good. Been using it for about 3 months now and parts do clean up pretty easily and BCGs seem to stay pretty wet through a range session. Jury is still way, way out, though. Time and experience should tell. If I see any sign of gumming I will stop using it. The only way to get the gum of is to use acid and I ain't taking Bar Keeper's Friend to my gun parts. -Stooxie View Quote I have found that less is more with FIREClean. Andrew Touhy explained it best when he said he shot 40,000 rounds between I believe 4 guns, using only about a dozen drops of FC, total. How I treat my weapons is to very very lightly lubricate then, as in, I apply the lube, and then wipe the part off with a paper towel. That's all that is necessary for the FIREClean to work very well. |

I suspect that if you strip the metal parts of all oils like FireClean instructs and used Canola oil in the same manner you'd have similar results. Probably almost any oil for that matter. I've used FireClean and Slip 2000 with great results. My only concern as previously stated is FireClean makes no claims to protect against corrosion and the rancid odor from the old bottle I have makes me concerned it will gum up long term. Also, as a consumer it does make me feel rather stupid to pay so much for repackaged Veg oil. View Quote A few guys on TOS tried that. Their guns were "A sticky mess" in 24 hours, lol. I personally think that FIREClean made that press release just because they wanted to screw with idiots who they knew would be emboldened to "Do what they aren't supposed to", and by god it worked, and it's funny as hell to me to watch! |

I never paid much attention to gun lubes before but it does sound like vegetable or synthetic non oils clean up better. I've never cleaned a suppressor, can't you just blast it with gun scrubber or carb cleaner? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I shoot suppressed a lot and it makes it easier to clean. If someone were to come up with a diy recipe that performs just as good I'd make the switch. Haha, I wish. I clean cans with CLR. Gun-scrubber might get the fingerprints off? I have not personally noticed that FIREClean keeps suppressor baffles clean or anything of the sort, as I get my cans well past its burn-off temps, although Fireclean claims it does, and some people agree, that is the one and only area where I have seen it abjectly fail to "meet claims". Who knows, maybe only on rimfire cans? due to lower temps? |

For me M-Pro 7 LPX does everything Fireclean does for 1/3 the price and works in cold temps which Fireclean did not.
And I don't have to strip the parts with solvent before using it. IMO Fireclean just isn't worth it. |
