Would you mind clarifying?  What work is Frog Lube?

froglube is supposed to be applied to a warm surface
i ended up putting them on the garbage can out in the sun for a bit

works well on your slide and barrel of handgun
not so easy to apply on internals

Is that froglube clp in the test the same froglube that you have to degrease and heat up the parts?

Its the Frog Lube CLP, its shows a photo about 7 down. You use it like any CLP. The paste is the one you need to heat up.

Yeah I thought so, that's why I questioned it.
If you go shopping for froglube, you have to make sure you get the right flavor.
How come there's no buzz about hornady 1shot??
Didn't that stuff work pretty good across the board?

does anyone have fireclean in stock locally?

SEC posted a message that they had 5 bottles as of 6pm yesterday

thanks OF I just saw that post now

I got a kit through amazon.  Also there was a person locally who was selling here on the forum.

 I still haven't been able to test fire, but it seems like good stuff.  From what I have researched,  you need to remove all old oil,  grease, and residue from the entire firearm first, then warm the metal with a hair drier or similar, then treat all metal parts.  Then after an hour or so to let it soak in, wipe off all the execess off. There after use only the frog lube to clean and lube sparingly.  Most failures with FL seem to be from people using it improperly or not fully degreasing prior to treatment.

I have high hopes it works as advertized. So far it seems good, but I still have to run a couple of hundred rounds and give it a good run through to make an opinion on FL.

Use the liquid version for internals

if anyone on maui is looking for froglube or any oahu people happen to be on island. Maui ammo and gun supply in wailuku has frog lube in stock.

My usual anal-retentive degrease routine is acetone followed by spray brake cleaner.

I hope that would be sufficient.  I worry about what my skin absorbs, though at my age, it is probably too late to worry.

Only got to run 100 rounds through the hand gun (CZ75b) so far.  No hang-ups or malfunctions due to lube noted even though the gun seems "drier" than I am used to.  FL seems to work as advertized.  As you fire rounds, the lube starts to liquify and slicks things up.  The carbon and fouling seems to float off of the surface of the metal parts were it is easily wiped away.  Clean up after the session was very quick (carbon) came off with no real effort. I used the solvent spray and liquid (sparingly) to clean then lube, wiped off the excess, and put everything back together.

What I did notice, however, was that the copper streaks in the barrel were not really effected by the FL.  I can only see the streaks with my LED flashing looking through the bore, normal lighting and the barrel looks clean and smooth.   While not really "build up", my OCD it making me want to get the copper color off the inside of the barrel. I'll fight it off and let it be.  I want to see what happens..
