Poor lube and poor protectant. There is much better stuff available. Corrosion prevention test Scroll down to the test coupons. |

I do like Rem Oil for use on my .22s. It is light enough to not interfere with operation and it cleans carbon and un-burnt powder handily. During a days shooting I will wipe the feed ramp with a q-tip wetted with Rem Oil and give the .22 action a shot of Rem Oil every couple hundred rounds or so and it keeps the gun going.

I keep a can on top of the safe for quick wipe downs, I use lucas gun oil for lubing parts that need it.

It's good on bolt actions, but that's all I'd ever use it for.
Edit: LOL just noticed I already replied to this thread like a year ago, that's funny. |

Synthetic automotive engine oil. Seriously. It's engineered to lubricate from the southern heat to Klondike cold, all the while providing anti-wear additives, rust and corrosion inhibitors, & friction modifiers. |

My experience so someone searching sees all sides of Rem Oil...it is all I have used almost exclusively for over 20 years on all types of firearms for cleaning, lube, and protection. No rust, no sticky residue, no build up, no problems.
It is light. It is inexpensive. I like how it penetrates into all crevices and between all parts. If I was going to operate in a constantly wet environment I might look for better protection, however, Rem Oil will always be a go to for me. Wish they sold it gallon cans. |

I know this is an old thread but it continually comes up as a topic. There are two ingredients according to the MSDS. Here is the link. Read for yourself.

I would be hard pressed to use it on a fidget spinner let alone any of my firearms.

So something weird, I think they changed their formula recently. Just bought a can of Rem Oil and instead of saying it has Teflon, now it says "with 2x more lubricant than previous Rem Oil formula" on the can. I remember in the 1990s when somebody sprayed a bunch of IIRC Garand clips with various oils and hung them over his shower for a few months. The least rusted clip had Rem Oil on it, beating RIG, WD40 and I don't remember what else. |

Good for topping off an unreliable .22 multiple times during a range trip (slide and 1st round of mag), but otherwise meh.

It is what my family used as CLP, before I knew what CLP was. That stuff was always around. Seemed like Fred Meyer would have a sale on the stuff once a year, and I would get 2 spray cans for like $5
When I moved to AK, and we shot in the cold, I mean COLD, a clean gun with RemOil always cycled. I finally realized how bad of a lubricant it was, and stopped using it for anything but cleaning the exterior of a gun until it was finally all gone. That smell is burned into me. |

I only ever bought one bottle of it, it seems like I have been mostly using it on a patch on a glock cleaning rod in my pistols as a quick swab. It doesn't seem to leave much residue in the barrel, it's really thin. Some oils I put on patches leave obvious globules along the barrel when I look through with a bore light.

I might have to try it as a super cold weather lube.
Clp didn't perform too well, about a 6/10 failure to fire rate at 0° in my ruger american. Cocky coyote chilly dog worked fine. Figured out the clp gummed up on the firing pin. Might also have to try 5w20 since I take that in the truck now. Axle grease was fine last year in the handguns and clp worked fine on my centerfire rifles. |

I used it for lube but don't count on it for being top shelf on my guns. In the guts of the ARs I don't have I would use Cherry Balmz. I have seen it work very well. |
