Eezox

Well, my order of Eezox came in yesterday and I'm going to apply it on my handguns to test it out. If it lives up to its hype, the rifles and shotgun will be next.

I've heard a lot of good things about it and I bought it from a member here. I know some have given opinions in the past, but I'd like any updates if anybody should incline.

I'll keep ya posted to let you know if this stuff works for me.

Good day!

I use Eezox and love it. It works great at cleaning and leaves a dry protective finish on all metal parts. Along with Slip2000 I think its one of the best at cleaning and protecting from rust.

I just wiped the excess off after leaving it on overnight. I can't believe how it makes my gun's finish so smooth and fingerprint resistant!

Can't wait to go to the range just to dirty up the gun to see how it protects, lubes, and check on the ease of cleaning.

I had been meaning to pick some up for quite awhile now - your thread reminded me and I placed my order . Glad to hear it's working well for you.

I've used it for years. The stuff works as well as they say, just remember to wipe off the excess. A little goes a long way.

The subsequent applications on the gun gets smaller like the bottle says, yes?

Storms have been ripping through here lately, so I haven't been able to test it yet.

Just spray to cover and let is soak. I then use the small bottle to wet the barrel with a soaked patch. I think I'm addicted to the smell as I now like it , but you'll be amazed how easy cleanup gets with use and you will need less and less. I love the clean finish on the guns surface with no oily mess, its a dry finish. I bring a cotton cloth to the range and just wipe the gun down as I use it, the heat of firing brings out the lubrication from the dried Eezox. You'll love it, one product that can do a great job.

So, even when it "looks" like there's no lubrication there, it's there? It makes sense that it will draw out of the metal, since microscopically, metal is porous. But I have a hard time believing my gun is protected if I can't physically "see" the lubricant.

I got the .95oz oiler and 4oz. can. Do you like the spray better?

I'm a nut with the gun cleaning supplies so I have the spray can, the squeeze can, and the oiler size! The guy at the local gun shop always says, "boy you sure do like that Eezox stuff". I use the spray all over the gun and make sure its all wet. They I run a wet patch through to soak the barrel, and let it sit for 20 to 30 mins. Its still wet then as the carrier evaporates but the oil is still there. I then wipe it dry with a Flita cloth and clean the barrel with dry patch's. The only non-Eezox stuff I use is when I get the guns home from the range I spray them off inside and out with GunScrubber or equivalent, gets any powder or residue off quickly.
