I hate it when people come into a thread and tell you your dumb and don't give a good educated alternative to your stupidity. To me they are the are the dumb ones. Heck I might even be inclined to things they are assholes too.

Step 1: post every possible solution
Step 2: choose from among the ones that mike cyrwus doesn't make fun of
Step 3: Profit

Does it come in any other colors than Red? That would clash with my jersey.

IDK, will get some food coloring and report back.

Seriously though: what's so special about Slide Glide, Frog Lube, or whatever else the weapon lube du jour is? It seems like there are so many automotive/industrial oils and greases out there, with different viscosities and additive packages, that at least one should work great for guns without costing $monkeybux per ounce.

And I'm sure the automotive lines have put about a 1,000,000% more R&D $ into development then any gun oil ever has.

Wesson Oil.

Or whatever comes in the shooters bag at registration.

No kidding. My great uncle was in charge of engine testing oil at the Conoco R&D center. They had a dozen 289 ford engines that were on racks with dummy loads to put stress on the engines. They were dismantled to the bare engine, blueprinted to identical dimensions, filled with different oils and ran for different lengths of time/loads, or until they failed.
Then they were dismantled, and miked on all wear surfaces to see which engine had the least wear with that particular oil.
Grease is done the same way with different test equipment.

That's the kind of elephant dung you dream about doing for a living during calc III in engineering school.
