Does anyone know a good or better than alternative to brownells WDO? It’s rarely in stock for some reason.
Anyone used CRC- 6-56 before? Du-lites WDO?

How does one tell if an oil is “water displacing”? I seem to recall WD40 is some sort of water displacing product.

I’ll definitely check into LPS2. Sounds like good stuff. Thank you for the recommendation.

Everyone makes fun of and tells horror stories about WD-40, and how it “gums up” over time. I’ve used the stuff for 50 years on dozens of applications with zero problems. Go figure. JR

I use it all the time. I have gallons of the stuff. Mainly use it for cleaning & polishing. It’s just not what I’m looking for in this application. The main ingredient of Wd being naphtha, it has always made a great cleaner for shotgun barrels.

For decades I have purchased WD-40 in one gallon cans and used in for untold purposes. I have seen videos of numerous places in Europe and there is a can of WD-40 on the work benches.
Your comment that people make fun of it reminds me of what I saw of another product that is made fun of---the Asian 7 inch metal lathes. For those of you who have the video "A LOOK INSIDE HOLLAND % HOLLAND you will see one of the 7 inch Asian lathes on one of the craftsmen's work bench--it is apparently his personal lathe.

WD40 seemed to be one of the first casualties of the internet to "alternative facts". It works fine. WD stands for water displacement as I understand it, and I use it for that purpose with great success when cleaning all guns but particularly blackpowder guns that are cleaned with dihydrogen oxide first.
