I wish you luck with your endeavor.
This is exactly the kind of info I'm looking for.
It would do all of that except for possibly the stink part, that's subjective but I can't see it being a whole lot worse. I already know it's going to have great lubrication properties and it will have additives specifically for corrosion meaning the chemical added is specifically for long term protection in a corrosive environment that's prone to condensation, so a year in the safe or attic should be no problem, that's what I'm going for. I want to get some lab testing done to confirm before I take it to the public.
This isn't really real world for Ballistol since it is water soluble it was washed off rather quickly. That won't happen under normal use and Ballistol is very good for blackpowder and corrosive ammo. I use it for certain applications, same with Froglube. One thing about Ballistol is its really really cheap, there is a giant markup that they are getting because it ain't cheap for us to buy. Here, this will give you an idea. Just not against what I'm looking at developing, I would expect it to do very well in this test.

Well I have a D.O.D. certified lab lined up to do some testing on an AR15 receiver and bolt carrier group under live fire and to do a 30 day humidity cabinet test. Probably be in the fall before I get it rolling, but I think it's going to happen.
