Traditional lubricants temporarily bathe and coat the metal surfaces and create a temporary film between all metal parts. Since the condition is only temporary, a lack of constant lubrication, over time, leaves the weapon unprotected due to the effects of firing, environmental conditions and long-term storage. Traditional lubricants also attract and hold foreign particles on the metal surfaces and inside the finely machined parts, causing increased friction, heat and wear, resulting in outright stoppages. In addition, stoppages will also occur when excess fouling is cemented to the unprotected metal surfaces. In very cold climates, as low as -75oF, MILITEC-1 will continue to lubricate since the synthetic molecular bonding that has previously been impregnated inside the molecular structure of the metal will result in the weapon remaining constantly lubricated. Therefore, the weapon will perform in all military environments. MILITEC-1 performs on all rim fire and center fire weapons, including semi- and fully-automatics of all calibers. MILITEC-1 is applied on all inside and outside surfaces including the bore. After firing enough rounds to heat the firearm, MILITEC-1 can be wiped dry without losing its lubrication effect. When cleaning, only 5 to 6 drops of MILITEC-1 are required for small caliber weapons. When only MILITEC-1 is used, the weapon remains lubricated under all environmental conditions. For long-term storage, i.e., two years or longer, leave a film of MILITEC-1 on all metal surfaces to prevent corrosion.
