REM Oil

[MarcosG]

Hello,

Is it ok to use this oil spray (REM oil with Teflon) just for the outer parts on my spinning reels (Penns, Shimanos)?

Thanks

When I lived in the temperate rain forest of SE Alaska (10'-15' or more rain a year, feet not inches.  Our average in Ketchikan was 168" but we had a few years close to 200") the only thing that I found that worked all day on a rifle was Johnsons Paste Wax.

That is my oil of choice on Firearms. After a good cleaning, I spray the action, the outside and wipe down with a Silicone cloth.
It keeps the bolt assy working great on AR's.

I just came back from Emerald Isle where I was doing some fishing with my kids off of a pier mostly. None of the reels go wet wet with salt water but the exterior gets some of the salt from the breeze. I was going to wipe them off with a wet cloth, spray some of REM oil or silicone (wasn't sure which is betterand wipe off the excess before put them away for next year's vacation. Inside they have been lubed by me (thanks for this forum and the tutorials here).
The rods themselves I just washed with water a after dried I sprayed silicone.
Too bad I can only go fishing once a year 😂

You might read some of the info on Ecoseal Nanolube use on firearms.  They claim it works well, and it seems that you have some if you decide it is worth a try.

(note:  I am not affiliated with Ecoseal and haven't tried it.  I've only done a little research on it since reading about it here.)

[MarcosG]

I will even though a don't own any firearms. Thanks for the tip.

That Ecoseal works great. I am a believer of it. On my AR's, I choose the fail zero bolt with the nickel boron coating.

I use remoil for light oiling on my reels, and for thinning grease.  It works well by itself for lubing bearings you want super fast, but be prepared to reapply every couple of weeks or trips.  You can add it to marine grease to thin the consistency, and it is very resistant to separating.  I use that a lot on spinning reels, where thick grease can make the reel less free spinning. 

It also makes a good cleaning solvent, and wont varnish like wd40.

Remember, your line brings the salt water to the reel every time you reel in!

I have a Remoil/CorrosionX mix as a light durable oil for bearings.

[MarcosG]

I mix corrosion X with Yamaha grease for the inside parts and Shimano Permalube for shimanos only. I just want to preserve the outer parts. I'm afraid to use something too strong that could damage the plastic decals. This REM oil is also cheap, $7.00.

True! I forgot about that. Would be ok to spray the line as well without damaging it (mono and braid) ?
