I just started using the new FireClean lubricant. The sales pitch and promises are similar. You should do a side-by-side comparison of the two products.

I'm going to do exactly that. I'm even going to do a corrosion comparison with a bunch of the popular lubes.

As an aside I just cleaned my 1911 with Frog Lube. This stuff is just downright weird. I had been using Slide Glide on this gun and the last time I shot it the ammo was cast lead bullets. The frog lube just melts the nastiness up and holds it there to be wiped away. And it wipes away clean on the 1st wipe using those blue paper shop towels you get at Wallyworld, Autozone, etc. The heating up with a blow dryer with the paste isn't even necessary but it does help get it into the nooks and crannies. The liquid frog lube is a bit more convenient for barrel cleaning. Don't be afraid of the paste not cleaning, you can rub it into a patch and just scrub with it. The grunge just disappears into the patch. Wipe off and you have a clean gun that's really smoooooooooth.

I'm not sure I buy the whole "opening up the pores of the metal" claim on polished stainless or blued guns, however on anodized aluminum (think AR15, Beretta M9, Sig Saur, etc.) and parkerized steel (again think AR15, Mil Spec finished steel, etc.) and on bead blasted finishes there may be something to it.

The frog lube looks to be my new favorite CLP type lube for the guns I shoot often. Time will tell but I'm liking the hell out of it right now. You guys in Tulsa should go get some from Don and give it a go.
