Fireclean froze solid
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

He tested some off brand veg oil and it froze solid but it was thawing out quicker than fireclean by the time he got to it.
Go to 9:20 in the first video for the fireclean and then the veg oil

I stand by my statements that vegetable oil based lubes are poop.

I like boeshield T-9 for extreme temps, used to shoot winter leauge skeet with an autoloader, nothing worked as good as boeshield, found it in a 20 page report a guy I bought a pistol from gave me about hot and cold tests done with lubes available 30 yrs ago. I still use it and good for long term storage too.
