Tuf-Glide Dry Lube Gun Knife CLP Needle Applicator .25 oz

FYI... I'm using similar review content for several Sentry Solutions products that I purchased here at Amazon.com as all are commented on within: This item is no joke. I bought it because I like the idea of a dry lubricant for lighter recoil guns, my carry gun (pocket & clothing lint) and my .22s due to their excessive lead and carbon buildup. These types of products take more effort and patience to apply, but they are worth it. You can actually feel your firearms function more smoothly after using them, and they make subsequent cleanings far easier to manage and take less time. This product is recommended highly for knives, while SMOOTH-KOTE is recommended for internal firearms parts. However, TUF-Glide can also be used for quick cleaning and light cleaning of firearms, and in fact the US Army uses the TUF-Cloth in the field for on-the-fly rifle and handgun cleaning, particularly in the desert, dusty environments of Iraq and Afghanistan. TUF-Cloth is a 100% lint-free microfiber cloth that is saturated in TUF-Glide and reusable. I prep the surface with 99% isopropyl alcohol as my solvent, which dries quickly, and then I apply SMOOTH-KOTE with a hobbyist paint brush to all disassembled internal parts. One warning, you can absolutely use SMOOTH-KOTE on the outside of your firearm too, but it dries to a charcoal grey color so most people do not do this. I don't. I run the TUF-Cloth over the outside metal parts after I've reassembled it, and I treat all inner parts with SMOOTH-KOTE. That's for a thorough cleaning. For quick cleanings, like if I'm just wanting to polish up the feed ramp, breach and chamber areas, I use the TUF-Glide pen oiler and some tight cotton swabs or small cleaning patches. It's excellent as a cleaner since it's suspended in mineral spirits, and it leaves behind a nice, dry, slick surface. This item's needle applicator has been great and this solution will not clog it. My only complaint about the SMOOTH-KOTE product is the needle applicator will clog if you don't use it for a few weeks and it dries out. This happened to me and I didn't realize it. I squeezed the bottle a little too hard and the stuff came flying out like a laser beam when the clog broke free, which stained my hands, cleaning mat and old t-shirt. Fortunately nothing of value, and I know better now. I actually like the smell of this too, but that's not to say it will be that way for everyone. Anyways, highly recommended product here if you have the patience to use it. I find "painting" my firearms parts to actually be quite relaxing. It's like ceramic figurines, but for dudes (mostly).

I absolutely love this oil, especially the precision tip. Does not leak because of a tight red cap that comes with it (don't lose that). Very little is required. I used it initially for oiling my pocket blades. I guess it works best with a Tuf cloth that helps prevent static and friction and rust too. That's an extra item you have to get, but it's basically a souped up eyeglasses cloth. Update; I used a little of this on my moon roof yesterday to stop it from squeaking when it closes, and it worked like magic after a run back and forth. I love this stuff. It really goes a long way, you don't have to use but a few drops in the right spot and you can really get to it with the tip.

I bought this twice. The first one I got leaked 1/3 into its packaging. But I could still use the remaining 2/3 (it still slowly leaks out its back though). The second one arrived in perfect condition and still remains in its dry packaging. As a CDLP, it does the job to clean and lubricate my Spyderco and Benchmade folding knives. Smells sweet too.

The Sentry Solutions Tuf-Glide Pen Applicator is a game-changer for anyone seeking precision lubrication in a compact form. As someone who values the longevity and smooth operation of my tools, this 0.25 oz pen has become an indispensable part of my maintenance routine. The pen applicator is a genius design, allowing for targeted and controlled application of the Tuf-Glide lubricant. It's perfect for firearms, knives, and other precision instruments. The small size makes it ideal for on-the-go use, fitting neatly into my toolbox or pocket. The lubricant itself is exceptional - it not only reduces friction and wear but also provides corrosion protection. I've noticed a remarkable improvement in the performance and lifespan of my equipment since using Tuf-Glide. The reliability it adds to my firearms and blades is unmatched. The convenience of the pen applicator eliminates messy spills, and the precise delivery ensures I use just the right amount every time. The 0.25 oz size may seem small, but a little goes a long way, making it a cost-effective solution for regular maintenance.

works great fast ship

Good lubricant, eady to use

I was skeptical to be honest. It came in a baggie with a label that says tough glide and a bottle that does not although I believe wholeheartedly since I've used this for over 30 years that it is excellent price quick delivery highly recommend. I use it mostly on RC trucks and folding knives more expensive type and it keeps them from rotting and quick action love it!

I have used tufcloth for my knifes that like to rust and bought this for the pivots and inner workings. Upon more reading into this pen I tried to cancel when I found out some people were having issues with it when used for pivots. It was sent out anyway and I'm glad I have it now. I used this on my leatherman skeletool which since purchase has been very stiff to use the pliers especially. With the tuff glide pen I dropped a few drops into the pliers and started working it in. The gunk in-between started coming up and draining off. A few more applications of tuffglide and no more came out. It now works very smooth and I don't have to use 2 hands to open the pliers! I have used this on my mini grip that I edc and once the grime is worked out and excess blown out with compressed air, this thing slides open VERY nicely. Better than when I first bought it. Very satisfied and this pen should last. A little goes a long way. I can coat a Becker bk2 blade with 4 drops. And that's a generous coating.
