Ballistol is fantastic on firearms, especially when using corrosive ammo. I use it with all my old mil-surp rifles or pistols using corrosive ammo as well as my black powder muskets.
In Germany we have a book which is called "Ballistol für 1000 Zwecke" -> Ballistol for 1000 purposes. You can even brush your teeth with it, desinfect wounds or shower ...
@@John5.56 In Germany it's pretty common to use it for that. Also we use it for "lighter stuff" like WD-40, you can remove Rust with it or losen bolts with it. Also you can use it to groom hair. It actually has 1000 purposes - But of course it's not always the best in something. But with "Nähmaschinenöl", "Ballistol" and the Oils for your vehicles you have pretty much everything you need for home projects. Edit: Theres also Ballistol for Electirc Stuff, which is pretty handy because you can easily remove it from a Connector or so, but it seals the area against water. So, if you need to seal a connector or so off from water or wanna make sure that the shrink tube is water tight -> Use this Ballistol.
On all the metal parts of my firearms, I apply a small amount of Ballistol then wipe it clean. It leaves a slight sheen and prevents rust. Over time, it absorbs into the metal causing a seasoned skillet effect. But for cleaning I use a dedicated gun solvent and for oiling, M Pro 7. I can tell you if you have a squeaky door hinge, spray some Ballistol, wipe up the excess, and that squeak will be gone for years. It's great as a general household lubricant. I just find it a little too thin as a gun lube for highly stressed parts. I have a medical syringe and needle I keep filled with it to use on trigger springs, switches, pins, etc. But for rails, bolts, etc., the M Pro 7 is more viscous and stays where it's applied. I know some people swear by high temp wheel bearing grease on their ar-15's, or Mobil 1 synthetic motor oil. Haven't tried either. If you ask 100 gun owners what they use for cleaning and lubrication, you'll get 100 different answers.
Ballistol is The lubricant to use in firearms. It leaves a thin film that hardens over time with oxidation. It will eventually oxidize in those bottle applicators which is why they don't offer it that way and why you have to break a plastic seal to get into the spray bottle.
Ballistol is a terrific, non-toxic CLP-type product for firearms, knives and tools. It also has a number of other intriguing applications. I’ve used it for years and have gotten used to the strong licorice smell. However, my wife still hates the signature “aroma,” LOL! 😂
It's been my go to cleaner for my hand guns. Since watching your videos I've started using on my tools also. The liquid doesn't smell as bad as the spray can. Haven't tried it on wood yet.
@@John5.56the aerosol can is “handy” but Balistol deserves more respect then that. Savor the gift of Balistol and get a few needle style applicator bottles. Mix it with water according to the application and never look back. Of course if using it for shampoo or body wash, straight Balistol (but you only need a couple drops). 😂👍
@@bespeedok yeah I think what we get in the states is different than the white bottled universal ballistol but yeah I prefer the liquid form and not the aerosol version. I have a small bottle of the aerosol in my bag just because of convenience.
This stuff is actually fucking amazing. Mix 10:1 with water for cleaning tools, use it pure on anything that needs lubricating, safe on rubber, plastics, wood, and leather. I can't get over how good it is.
I had heard of Ballistol before but never used it until watching your videos. I've found that it works well but the smell is too strong and objectionable, for me anyway. I still use it, I just hate the smell. Another great video none the less.
Some older firearms and some modern replicas have some brass parts. Also I wonder if you cleaned the chamber of a gun and then put a brass casing in if you might have a problem.
Love ballistol. It is great for firearms. I also like how you mentioned watering it down. I use a 1:10 dilution spray down my ak 74 barrls whenever I shoot corrosive ammo.
I rather really enjoy that Ballistol smell. Here in South Africa our packaging looks very different, just plain red with white lettering, looks very old school, like from the 50's which I like as it has that era mentality of its perfectly engineered to last a lifetime. You can even use on mild skin irritations or rashes, heard some people use it for psoriasis, have no idea if it works.. Def gonna try a watered down version
I just hadto try it. Turns out that it doesn‘t taste as bad as you‘d think. It does not at all taste like it smells - it‘s somewhat mildly bitter at first and after that just tastes like a neutral cooking oil. No real flavour but not unpleasant.
I can speak a little bit about the use in firearms. I use this stuff on my shotguns, because there are a lot of metal parts in them that are joined with wood, so I don't have to worry as much about overspray, and the oil will clean wood and soak in for good protection against moisture. It's not the best cleaner for heavy or solidified burnt gunpowder residue, though. You have to let it sit for awhile, whereas something like Breakfree CLP (with more aggressive solvents) will chew through the hardened stuff (and cut grease) in half the time. As a cleaner, you're really using Ballistol to grab and gather the dirt that you remove mechanically with a brush or abrasive. Ballistol's lubricity comes from the mineral oil, but it's too light a lubricant for very tight gun parts that move against each other under load. For those cases, a grease is better -- gun grease/cosmoline. If I'm putting firearms into locked & sealed storage, I like to use Ballistol as the "hibernation" lubricant, because it doesn't seem to leave a residue as it breaks down over time, or release water vapor in the process. In short, it's good stuff, but inevitably you have to use a second product to best cover all the bases, whether for lubrication or cleaning, in my experience. Fortunately, we are blessed with an immense variety of products and can pick from that diverse selection to fit the need. All-in-one cleaners/lubricants like Ballistol or WD-40 are most valuable as products for when you don't know what to use and need to use _something_. No house, garage or shop is complete without a can of either one (or both!), and I always seem to have a couple cans of Ballistol around the house. I'm always surprised that more people don't know about the stuff, as it does pretty well at a lot of things while being very safe to use. Thanks for making this video. It's very informative and highlights all of the attributes that make the stuff so good.
mineral 'baby' oil, squirt of dish soap 1/3 water, and voila...home brew, shake before each use :) also makes good drill and tap coolant, or lathe and oilstone sharpening, maybe add orange oil if you want some smell
Interesting...might have to check it out. I usually give my tools a wipe with some LPS2 on a rag. We use it for lathe setups all the time and it works great as a lubricant/corrosion inhibitor. LPS is really well liked in the aerospace industry too, so can't go wrong IMO.
Any difference in the green can vs the white universal stuff? Or is it all the same? Looking to use this to my screwdrivers, pliers etc to clean the handles and the metal.
I know it's been a year since you asked, but they are the same. Ballistol USA, the American distributor, uses the older style packaging you see here. The other distributors use the newer white cans with the universal label. Same ingredients and performance.
Ballistol works great on my firearms in the aerosol cans! However, I put some liquid Ballistol in a needle-oiler and it gummed up after a few months and was unusable. I will stick with Ballistol in the aerosol cans.
You can definitely use it on the black oxide finish, but I wouldn't put it near the bronze bushings since it will eat away at them and eventually cause a lot of slop.
Remember you tried that oil in the pressol/hazet oiler and it attacked the brass? I recently purchased a pressol 500ml oiler and it had germany stamped on the bottom, I was going to use the ballistol until I saw that video, I'm using a mix of oils in it, any way of resolving the issue? Looking forward to your next review..
I've been using those precision oilers that are just stainless steel and plastic. The ballistol didn't ruin the oiler, it just kind of tarnished the brass. Probably if I left it in there for a couple of months it might have dissolved enough to damage the seals.
I wonder how well it will work on keeping impact sockets from rusting. I've been using Citrol for cleaning tools and I really like it but supposedly Citrol will cause impacts to rust.
Communist Hippie Thanks! I'll look that stuff up. At first glance I read your username as 'Communist Hippo' and I almost spit soda at my iPad. Cheers Comrade Hippie!
I just saw Abom use Boefield T9 to protect a metal piece of work from flash rusting while awaiting delivery a few days ago. I have a set of pliers that are getting some surface rust from sitting without use (chrome finish). Any recommendation for Ballistol vs Boefield T9 or other? Love your channel, I'm looking at picking up a set of Wera hex-plus after seeing you use them. Thanks for all the info!
Never used Boefield before so I can't really say, but I'm sure if it was for short term use I wouldn't expect much different result if used to prevent flash rusting. Usually when I take things out of the sonic cleaner I use the aerosol Ballistol to spray all of the precision ground surfaces to prevent flash rusting.
@@GermanToolReviews That's a typo, he meant 'BoeShield T9', apparently it was developed by Boeing for use on airplanes. It's a paraffin wax based dry lubricant, but unlike other wax products it's very clean and basically invisible. It's great for some uses where you want a very clean, thin, and non-oily coating, I use it mainly on my bike chain. I think it would be fine for pliers, but usually I use some synthetic grease (Super Lube) for that instead.
...Don't worry about the specific Ballistol "smell". It caused on herbal extract and essential oils, used in the original recipe. Ballistol won't change anything because every ingredients is necessary for the perfect operating. ;-) ......
Unlike many, or better, most oils on the market, Ballistol doesn't resinate in time. Meaning, it is not thickening and getting hard and crumbly like most. It stays a liquid. Best lubricant oil there is, except for brass and copper ofc. ^^
I got some of this stuff in a pump sprayer that leaked from day one. It tended to topple over making it leak half the contents at once. It wasn't cheap so I did my best to contain it but after it flooded three shelves and dozens of other cans in the cabinet I had to clean it up throw it away. After this experience and waste of money and that smell that hit me every time I opened the cabinet, I can't remember how well it worked because the whole experience was dominated by a terrible stinky mess- even just thinking about opening that cabinet infuriated me. Glad to be rid of it now.
I put this sh- on everything. Even my battery terminals in my car get Ballistol. Never get corrosion on terminals again. My oil filter gets the gasket lubed with Ballistol. My boots get waterproofed, clean and lube the Glock and much much more. Look up 1000 ways to use Ballistol.
Personally I'd avoid to apply Ballistol at any plastic that isn't directly specified as oil resistant. Just plain warm water with little bit of soap do the job without any risk, so why bother with other solutions.
It works great on firearms. Just don't use too much and remember to wipe all residue off. Otherwise it like any other oil will trap debris and potentially cause problems with the action or moving parts of your firearms.
Ballistol doesn't clean for shit on guns... Comparing it to hoppes.. I have used a lot of solvent cleaners for guns and hoppes always does best.. It's least damaging cleans the best and has a good smell.. It's just strong on the scent area so be cautious.. But ballistol is an amazing lube just not very good at cleaning.. Regardless of sit time... It will work.. But not to my standards of actual clean the aerosol smells like compete shit and I hate the smell of it. The bottle smelled weird at first but it's ok now.. But not the aerosol.. And since its aerosol it's a conprimise of the real product.. Get both and be happy for the variety of uses and areas they will work in..

Regardless of sit time... It will work.. But not to my standards of actual clean the aerosol smells like compete shit and I hate the smell of it. The bottle smelled weird at first but it's ok now.. But not the aerosol.. And since its aerosol it's a conprimise of the real product.. Get both and be happy for the variety of uses and areas they will work in..
Use it on my guns & tools. Make a good ultrasonic cleaner

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Jesus
