Snouthunter Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Just curious what others have been using for oiling after cleaning their reels? For awhile I was using loon reel lube but find after a few to many dips in the river your re lubing it I like to keep well maintained gear OCD maybe lol.

SilverDoctor Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I use Quantum Hot Sauce reel oil and grease on my reels, even my vintage ones. Truly fine product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snouthunter Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Hmmm from the website that sounds like I should give it a go not expensive really either a tube should last awhile. Thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snouthunter Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Bike grease never would have thought of that I did think about some synthetic diff oil but kinda pricey lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricinus Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Ditto on the Hot Sauce.. Supposedly maintains it's viscosity and doesn't dry up over time.. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachako Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I just cleaned and regreased all my reels with White Lithium Grease. It's fairly fine and completely water proof,heat resistant,and adds a little corrosion protection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
