Sentry Solutions Sy1023 Unisex Cleaning and Maintenance Product - Adult, Multi-Colour, One Size

I got some metal shavings in my pocket knife's pivot while sharpening it. I washed it out with hot soapy water and rinsed it thoroughly. I dried it best I could. I had just got the bottle of tuf-glide and figured now is a good test. Without oil there was a lot of drag. So I gave the whole knife a good spraying and worked the joint a few times. Then I wiped it down with the tuf-cloth to remove the excess. I let it dry for a while (it does dry pretty well). I went to open the knife expecting it to flick out like it should, And nope. It came open slowly to the halfway point like it did when it was dry and when I was working it into the joint. I put a little more, This time with the needle point. Same thing happened. Disappointed I grabbed my benchmade blue lube. One drop on both sides of the pivot and bam! It opened like new.I am disappointed with this as a lube, but I am going to test it's protective quality on exacto blades which rust very easily. When I have results I will edit my review and add pictures of what I find. If the treated blade does not rust and the control does I'll give the product more than the one star I give it now.EDIT!I cleaned 2 exacto blades. They were a little different so I decided to test on 1 side of both. I applied the TUF-GLIDE with a q-tip to one side of both blades and let it sit for about 10 minutes. I wiped both of with a clean paper towel then put them both in a cup of salt water from my aquarium. I left them in over night and by morning the water was light orange with rust. I took them out. No doubt the unprotected side was very rusty, but the side with TUF-GLIDE was practically stain free! Given that exacto blades are cheap carbon steel I would call the minimum corrosion they had a success. So using this might make the difference between a slight stain on your metal gear or completely rusted.Thanks for reading.James.

This stuff cleans, protects, and dries completely clear on any kind of steel leaving no greasy film behind if done properly. I use it a lot on carbon steel knives, and just use regular Tuf-Glide on the stainless knives in my collection. My EDC knife, a benchmade bone collector made of D2 tool steel is exposed to a lot of perspiration on hot days, yet it does not rust thanks to Marine Tuf-Glide. I have used this product on everything from locks to even lug nuts and chrome, and I have found it to be highly effective. Its also comforting to know that this product can take temperature extremes without any issues.

I tried both the original Tuf Glide and the Marine Tuf Glide, and you cant beat the protection the Marine Tuf Glide gives you. It will leave a film on your gun/knife, but once it dries it is easily wiped away with any cloth.

I've been using Sentry Marine Tuf-Glide since I was in the Army long ago. I use it monthly for maintenance on my pistols and edged weapons. A good coating plus time to dry and lightly wipe down, leaves you with a well protected piece of equipment.I use it as a protectant and not as a lubricant.Recommended? Absolutely

I have used it for years, and I can say that it works very very well. Its all that I use for a rust inhibitor. just make sure you clean the blade surfaces you are applying it to with a solvent or some rubbing alcohol BEFORE you put the first application on so it can microbond to a clean steel surface. Excellent product when used correctly!
