LPS 3 Premier Rust Inhibitor, 11 oz Aerosol , hazy brown - L00316

as per recommendation of an aerospace engineer and a gun collector I purchased my first bottle (windex type bottle) many years ago to use for a longer term storage on firearms. Well, product does NOT disappoint, as a matter of fact - it preserves my firearms and enhances blue in the metal as well (important, as I do a number of restorations and this is my 'sealer' after applying bluing solution). I found it to be safe on inside/outside/wood/polymer(composite) stocks/inside bores... As a test(my first bottle), I had a take off swede mauser barrel cut in half (not the long way) and left both halves side by side outside in July or August in NE WI. One half was as is, another half was lightly coated inside and out with LPS3 - two weeks later (sun, due, humidity and we had one small rain shower) I went to the back of the garage where these two were... untreated half was rusty inside and out, other half (treated) looked as it was just brought outside. this stuff does NOT cause any long term damage to any parts of the firearm (metal/composites/wood). It will create a fine film (almost wax like), so use your best judgement when applying to firing pin channels, precision triggers and etc - it won't cause harm but it will affect mechanical performance with added friction if you do not clean it and apply heavy (same goes for your first /cold shot in the barrel - I run a patch with a more viscous gun oil). I use both, this spray and a windex type bottle. for cold weather users - it will thicken, so be advised as far as firearms moving parts or if taking your treated with LPS3 item outside in colder temps (made a mistake once hunting rabbits at 0F and bolt stooped cycling in a semi-auto 22 :), so I do wipe off now when going hunting and target shooting in the cold- or at lest, the moving parts )... for long term safe storage, vaults, cabinets, crates - nothing better in my trials.

Been using LPS #3 on my cars for decades. I've used the drain holes in the bottom of doors to liberally spray this inside the door between the two metal panels. My doors don't rust out at the bottom with age like many. Also effective against the brake lines rusting and having to be replaced. Expensive. But little else has contributed to slowing the rust cancer underneath and adding at least a year's life to the car every year I apply to high water / salt + snow areas.

Being the gear head and tool maintenance lover than I am, I can't help but appreciate how well LPS works. If you have metal automotive parts, garden tools, or long term storage items you just spray this on and it will keep the rust off of it until you're ready to pull it back out and use it. It provides a think coat of wax like substance that can be removed with soap or other cleaners. If it's good enough for the military it has and will work just fine for me.

Use this on rusty or stiff hinges, or coat ball hitches that like to corrode in the rain. Recommended.

LPS 3 is a great product for protection and lubrication of all types of metal applications.

The rust inhibitor itself is great. The packaging it arrived in not so much. Had a very rough trip. Several dented cans and one had the spray button sheared off. All things I can deal with, but knock it down a star.

Good protection, easy to use.no problems.

LPS comes in different grades, which are essentially varied viscosities. Number three leaves a lubricant that has just enough adhesive characteristic that it doesn’t just evaporate or drip off. I used to lubricate the channels and all of the various joints in my garage door to keep it from squeaking. It worked like a charm. In the past, my family used this on boats for variety of purposes, including spraying it on chrome metal to protect it during the winter months from the ravages of saltwater.

大変良い商品と聞き、購入しました。一年～二年間の錆止め効果が有るとの事、結果が楽しみです。

I was told this product is the end of rust in the workshop. I sprayed milling paralells, they rusted where they made contact. Sprayed a milling table, seen some rust afterward... Really not impressed. I feel I could have use butter and have the same result...

This works. Although I have only tried it on products stored indoors. It forms a waxy layer on the product and prevents rust
