Questions & Answers

Do you think this grease is okay to use on a matte black ?

It is true. It has been years since I have had any issues with RIG on my matte finished duck guns.

The Rig universal gun grease can be effectively used on AR15s. Can it be applied to AR15s? Heat will it evaporate it off easily, or will it not?

Definitely and exactly how it is required to be. Do not overuse the product. Use sparingly on the bolt carrier externally and on the bolt within For the pivots around the trigger and hammer, I do not use RIG, but rather, I use some good gun oil.

It is very clear what the limitations are/its intended purpose, and there is a lot to like
4/5

NLGI (thickness) of their products is not advertised by gun grease companies, and I've never understood why. As you can see, this product is thicker than most. I imagine that the model is similar to a NLGI 2 (like the grease tubs at Walmart), although perhaps just a bit thinner. I don't think this would be the best grease to use for lubricating actions, but I am sure it could be effective in an emergency. I think the primary function of this grease is to act as a protective coating and my initial impressions of it in that capacity are very positive. Rubbing some of this into a microfiber cloth and wiping or buffing it makes a meaningful In addition to bringing out the luster of various finishes (stainless, parkerized and blued), this polish also accentuates the surface texture. After I rubbed it into/buffed it, it didn't leave any greasy residue on the metal as I had On the basis of that experience and other reviews, I have no doubt that the metal will be well protected with this coating. Combined with a thick coating, this could also be used as a long-term storage solution. In short, this product is excellent as a rust preventative and a finish protection measure, but has only average performance as a.

I have been using RIG to protect ferrous metal for more than 40 years and there is nothing else as good
5/5

A little bit of RIG goes a long way ad doesn't harden or oxidize over time. It protects against rust and doesn't harden or oxidize. There has never been a time when it We are talking about a STORAGE grease, not a USE grease. Whenever it comes into contact with a surface, it will wear off. In the event that exposed iron or steel is being stored, it is best sprayed in a very thin layer on top. In the recent years, dozens of new, high-tech products have been introduced that claim to prevent rust. While some of those products may succeed in their end goal, they are expensive compared to tubes and jars If you're looking for a proven, low cost method of protecting metal in storage, RIG could be an option for you.

Lubricants are less, more rust preventers are used
3/5

Basically, this is a lubricant, and it can be used on slide rails, etc however, it is mainly a rust preventer meant to be used as a lubricant.

I love how it works
5/5

When I applied this grease to my Ruger P95, I noticed a rusting or deoxidizing in the metal, and I definitely noticed the difference. A small drop of this product was all I needed on a small wipe, and the amount of dirt and grime it removed was astonishing! I was very happy and satisfied with the appearance of my gun! Although I may not be using the optimal words to describe what was happening, I did find that this grease worked better than the oil I had previously used It's the kind of product I'd buy.

There is no sign of trouble with it
4/5

In addition to lubricating gears, it creates a thicker grease. I didn't think it was particularly good value for money, but it wasn't horrible either. This product does not evaporate fast, nor does it have a very strong odor. This medium grease is suitable for its purpose.

I really like it! This is what I use to prevent rust on my knife collection
5/5

When it comes to large knives, it works great, and hardly any elbow grease is required. You can expect to see more from me.
