Militec is a good lubricant, but that is all. It is not a cleaner and most definitely not any sort of a protector or rust preventative, as is very clearly evident from the photo.Originally posted by J-man_the_jet
Militec has always worked for me for Knife pivots, firearms, bike chains, door hinges, spings etc.
I used to use it as a lube too, but is so much easier to use an all-in-one like Eezox.
