I work in skilled trades at a multinational corp that produces lubricants and chemicals (most of them go to auto OEMs). I have access to lubricant test data that shows that most of the currently marketed gun lubes are horrible as far as corrosion inhibition, actual lubrication qualities etc.
That said, I am looking into buying them and marketing to the gun markets would you all be willing to spend $10.00 for a can of spray lube that works fantastic for not only cleaning, but the corrosion inhibition qualities are great! In a chamber called a salt spray chamber, bare carbon steel went for 47 hrs before it started to show corrosion, WD40 by the way went 6hrs.
Also, there is a grease that is specifically designed for metal to metal protection, such as bolt lugs, break action pins etc, (not semi auto bolts) I think I could package and sell it for around $6.00 or so for 2 oz tubes.
I started to use them at home and can't belive the difference.
Any input?
