I recently read a thread about the rust inhibiting perfomance of several different products. It mentioned eezox as the long term winner, and I have never been satisfied with the rust protection from tuff-cloth or tuff-glide so I decided to order some eezox. I cleaned and soaked two strips of old 1095 in tuff glide and two in eezox. removed them and placed them on some aluminum foil and sprayed them with salt water. the two tuff glide samples started rusting in five hours while the eezox remained rust free. after two days the tuff glide is sitting in a pool of rusty water and the eezox sample has a few specks of rust. I will now use eezox for my carry knives as they seem to corrode by the time I get around to cleaning them which might be a couple of weeks. and I am tired of cleaning them everyday. End testage.

Surprising, while I had assumed eezox would have lasted longer I didn't think Tuf-glide would perform so poorly. Did you give the carrier enough time to evaporate off the steel so that only the protective film remained?? Also, try heating the steel with a hair dryer before applying the tuf glide, back when I used to use it I found it helped it "stick" to the metal better. I never actually did any side by side tests back then, and I gave away my bottle since I found better lubricants.
