Thoughts on this "treatment" > ? I found it looking for a gun lubricant.

oil is surely not my concentration of knowledge, but im sure dotRJ the "oil Guru" will have a sufficient response

 

Sounds kinda like all the other slick50 type zMax type stuff out there, doesn't it?

When MILITEC-1 is applied to a metal surface, it chemically reacts with, and is adsorbed by, the metal. The chemical reaction takes place at temperatures between 100°F and 150°F (38°C - 66°C) depending on friction and load conditions. The effect of the chemical reaction is a stiffening (not hardening) of the metal surface -- approximately seventeen times stiffer when the reaction is complete. The increased stiffness dramatically reduces friction and parasitic drag, just as when an underinflated tire is pumped up.

I don't see how stiffer piston rings are going to reduce friction?

 

I agree on the surface (no pun) it looks like a bunch of talk without numbers, although they've got quite a few contracts with the stuff.

Comparing what specs I can, it is comperable to M1.

No offense, but I'll stick with Guntec from Liqui-Moly GmbH for my lubing up my firearms.

 

Oil threads are the devil.

lol, it's a discussion, no offense necessary

...but they ARE shipping hundreds of thousands of gallons of this stuff to Iraq. Makes you wonder...

 

its probably good for guns, but i wouldnt use this in an engine by itself.

Viscosity @ 212F/100C cst 5.63 = 10W.

 

yeah I was pondering using it as an additive.

nothing super concrete though in terms of chemical makeup.
