Sno-Seal as Patch Lube

Sharp Shooter · 09-04-2006, 09:08 PM

How many of you use Sno-Seal as a Patch Lube? How well doese it work? I ordered some Southern Bloomer .015 dry round pillow tick patches from GunAccesories.com and a 4oz tube of Sno-Seal to lube them with. I am also going to get some Lehigh valley to lube them with to and see what I like better. I originally got them to lube with Lehigh but saw the Sno-Seal and decided to try that. I still need to get the Lehigh and I will try both but what do you think of Sno-Seal? Doese it freeze?

What's in Sno-Seal? I ask because of the chemical reaction that transmitted into the air - then into your lungs after the ML is fired - not only when there's a head wind, but lingering smoke in the area.

Lehigh has been around forever, is safe & won't freeze. The original formula is supposedly back. Be careful when burning chemicals. If you have real questions about interactions, there are a few firemen -- even abatallion chief,who post in forums like this one.His screen name is Batchief at some messageboards.

SnoSeal is a waterproofing product used mainly for leather boots. Its made down in SC...I have used it since the late 70s...Its mainly beeswax...Works fine.

Best boughten stuff I 've found to water proof boots. Cost more than shorting, or good old bacon grease if you like bacon.

I tried it, works better on my boots than as a patch lube...........just cause it didn't work in mine, doesn't mean that it won't work for you!
