[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2977225, member: 3099"] I promise you that it does turn to a hardened glue like consistency over time. At least the paste will, I was never real impressed with the liquid form so I've never really used it. My Benelli shotgun didn't want to open after having a nice heavy coating set in place for about a year and it froze my AR trigger group after setting even longer than that. If you use the "seasoning" method with heat and wipe it all off you won't have this problem, but then you don't have any lubrication either. 25 years of machining taught me that unless they make guns out of cast iron, you can forget about it "seeping into the pores of the metal". I can attest to that being pure horsechit too. Metal (steels, aluminum, brass, etc.) doesn't have pores. Some coatings do have a porous matrix like anodize and parkerizing but you won't get very much lubrication with what it will hold. FL does do well on corrosion especially with the "seasoning" method. I think it's a plant based wax quite honestly. I still use it for corrosion and also on my Dillon press on all the plastic cams except for the ring indexer, it gets synthetic grease. [/QUOTE]
