It makes sense that there could be a reaction to mixing both types of products.

To prove to myself there is no problem, I just took out of the safe my old S&W Mod-36. After having been used with solvents/oil for 30 years, it was prepped and cleaned with FrogLube almost two years ago. It has not been touched, lubed or fired in that time. Not a bit of stickiness whatsoever, nor on any of the other guns that have been "frogged" over the past two years.

Lastly, I pointed out a section on the website instructions that are somewhat vague about prepping for the first time. It will be brought to the attention of the powers that be and will be corrected. I will follow for these changes.

They still need to change the name or it ain't going on my guns.

Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!
