This stuff seems to get rave reviews from almost everyone but I don't get it. I tried the stuff on my G19 and it was no better than Slip 2k or dare I say it, Break free. I applied it per directions, i.e. cleaned the gun, word with IPA then applied to lube. After only 150 rounds or do I still had to break out the brush to clean the feedramp, locking block, beach face and around the safety plunger.

It didn't "wipe clean with a paper towel". Well it did in a couple places. I remember Skip 2k doing the same thing when you put in on that thick (heavy coat) which seems to be the only way wiping this stuff clean happens. I don't slather lube ask over the Glock so maybe that was my problem? I don't want it running down to the holster. For suppressors heavy coats may be OK and AR's like to be really wet so it may work really well there too. Just not for pistols?

So am I don't it wrong? I tend to think maybe since it works great for damn near everyone. So in short seems like a good CLP, still needed a brush to clean, works no better than Slip, cost twice as much for half as much. Anyone else get these results?

The placebo effect is why it works great for everyone else.

IMO Glocks need so little lube that there is no point in using any fancy wonderlube on them.  A drop on each slide rail, a drop spread around the barrel, and a tiny drop where the connector and trigger bar meet.  CLP is pretty much all I've used on mine.  Never felt the need to change.

you can almost run them dry.      you also don't have to clean them that often.

Save fireclean for ARs and other dirty run wet guns.

Glock I use just a little, and if I clean with ballistol don't need any.......
