    Recluse lube

    I'am having good luck with the Recluse lube but I have to heat it to use it, is that an indication of not enough thinner or does it always need a hot water bath before use. Thanks Frank C.

    I always heat mine with hot air or water also. Might not have to, but makes the coating more efficient. Get mine from http://www.lsstuff.com/ BTW.

    I heat mine too. I Run a a sink full of water as hot as the tap can go and then float a plastic pail of my boolits along with the bottle of LLA (now containing 45-45-10). When everyone is all warmed up in a few minutes thins go very much easier.

    Wait until later this summer. Put it in the garage and check it out when the weather is hot. It will probably slosh around like milk. That is, if you are not in Australia where it's heading towards winter now

    I warm my bullets with a hair dryer and definitely heat up the lube.The lube should flow easily and the bullets need to be warm.

    I zap mine for a minute in the microwave (8ozs) and warm my boolits slightly so that the lube has a chance to coat evenly before it starts thickening.
