Frequently Asked Questions

What is Slip 2000 EWL and why is it beneficial?

Slip 2000 EWL (Extreme Weapons Lubricant) is a synthetic firearm lubricant designed for enhanced wear resistance and longevity. It can last 4-5 times longer than standard gun lubes, allowing for 2,000-4,000 rounds between re-lubrication on platforms like the AR-15, significantly reducing malfunctions during high-volume shooting.

How does Slip 2000 Carbon Killer work, and what are its limitations?

Slip 2000 Carbon Killer is an aggressive cleaner that effectively removes carbon fouling from firearm parts. It can be used by soaking parts for 15-20 minutes. However, it's crucial not to leave blued parts in the cleaner for too long, as it can fade or remove the finish.

What makes Slip 2000 lubricants different from petroleum-based options?

Slip 2000 lubricants are pure synthetics without petroleum, Teflon, or silicone. This means they don't gum up, become sticky, or burn off. Instead, they bond with the metal and actively dissolve carbon upon contact, simplifying cleaning and maintaining lubrication longer.

Are Slip 2000 Gun Wipes reusable?

Yes, Slip 2000 Gun Wipes are pre-moistened with gun lube and are designed not to dry out quickly. Users have found they can be used multiple times for quick cleaning, fingerprint removal, and rust prevention, making them a convenient tool for firearm maintenance.
