Was looking at different rust inhibitors and found these informal tests performed by people on youtube. 

 

Not sure which of these products would be safe to use on a firearm. 

 

For the actual results, just skip ahead to the following times:

 

Various rust inhibitors, 3:23

 

 

Break Free CLP vs WD-40 LTCI, 6:37

 

 

Break Free CLP vs WD-40 LTCI, 10:41

 

 

Theres one out there that tested like 30 different products I will try to locate it

Thats interesting.

 

The Corrosion X didnt do well here but was the leader in the youtube test. 

 

Regular WD-40 did pretty here and in the above tests with the rust inhibitor.

 

BOE T9 and Ultima Lube were the best yet I havent heard of either...

I like Eezox. I mainly use Breakfree CLP and havent had any issues, then again geographic location factors in

Did you read thru the whole thread for the updates?

I have been using Eezox for a while now.  Im glad I have some validation for the price of that stuff.  I will surely continue using it now

m14forums has one, I'll see if I can find it.  they tested just about everything you would use in a firearm and ezox, syn motor oil and another name which escapes me did the best

How long do you plan to store ?

 

I have used CRC heavy duty corrosion inhibitor Part # 06026.

 

Only way to remove it is with solvents stays soft and does not dry and crack.

 

I use this product all the time on battery terminals and ground blocks in boats even on fuse blocks depending on location..

 

I have used it on my firearms..

 

Very similar to cleaning a military rifle that was in storage ( Mosin ) etc... 

I posted a link in here earlier this or last year but i think it was originally posted on m4carbine?

 

Edit:  Apperently I didnt read the 2nd post... lol

 

In my thread on here there were several pages of good discussion as well...

Eezox only

Did you read thru the whole thread for the updates?

 

I did now.

 

Looks like there were two sets of tests:

 

 

 

 

The Corrosion X was inconsistent.  It did well in the youtube test, not so well in the 2nd test and pretty well in the 3rd test.

 

The two most consistent ones seem to be the BOE T9 and the Eezox. 

been using sea foam deep creep for a few years now. Love it

The tests they are doing with these products are not what they were intended for.. You can use it as a speeded up process but they are being used outside their box..

 

Not only that the metals used have a protectice coating already on them without it being removed the test is false..
