Militec-1 vs Rust - XDTalk Forums

GiddyUpGo · 01-31-2009, 08:44 PM

I just received my shipment of Militec-1 and have started the applications process. I was wondering if anyone else has applied Militec-1 on their XD. My XDm is brand new and has no rust so I thought I would get the jump on it early on. Prior to this I used CorrosionX with great success on my other firearms. The Militec-1 is designed as a dry impregnated lubrication. Guys in Iraq seem to love it. Anyone else out there using this?

I just started using it a couple of weeks ago. Works great. A couple of drops on a Q-tip after a day of shooting is all thats required.

I tried it about 7 yrs ago and ended up with some rust (ugh!). Eezox has done a much better job in my humid environment.

I've used it for a long time. Good lube but doesn't prevent rust any better than anything else i've tried.

Militec or almost anything will work for normal conditions, but for extreme conditions I would use Eezox or BF clp. See Rust Test................

Weaponshield CLP for me. You can buy it directly from there website now too, which rocks.

Works as good as BF for cleaning and protecting, and lubes better imho.

Eezox is number 1 for rust prevention and used with a drop of Mobil one, its all you need.
