Title: S100 Corrosion spray
Post by: ducatiz on October 13, 2009, 04:23:27 AM
Does anyone have an opinion about it?

I have used it and it seems ok.  It is dry to touch after it sets.  I like the idea, but I prefer Eezox, although EEzox has a dry film lube as well.

Looking for something for storage that isn't a wet lube (like WD40 or similar...)

any thoughts?

thx

Make sure it doesn't contain silicone.

Looking to inhibit corrosion on steel?

I just use gun oil if its going to be sitting awhile. Its purpose, beyond lubrication of moving parts, is to protect the steel from rusting. I've got zero rusty guns, so it seems to be working quite well. Also, Hoppes smells better to me than most colognes.

If its something you are going to be touching a lot, hence no wet-lube, the dry film protection can't offer much of an advantage at corrosion inhibition if you are touching it a lot.

What are you going to put this on, frame or battery terminals? The intended application makes a difference.

I used a light gun oil on the frame on my bike during off season and whenever I spot exposed steel. Not on the tank/etc.  I've got that ol' matte antique gold finish and have a bit of a worry about pitting, as this thing ages. (my god, we are in the double digits! get some cake and candles!) I like the stuff I've been using because its paint-safe, and removes some dirt while I'm playing in the garage.
