Firearms: Exterior use only

  1. Rust Prevention:
    • Sealants can create a protective barrier that prevents moisture and environmental contaminants from coming into contact with the exterior metal surfaces of a firearm, reducing the risk of rust and corrosion.
  2. Extended Longevity:
    • By protecting against corrosion and wear, sealants can help extend the lifespan of your firearm, ensuring it remains in good working condition for longer.
  3. Easier Cleaning:
    • Sealants can make surfaces smoother and less porous, making it easier to clean and maintain the firearm. Dirt, carbon, and other residues are easier to remove when cleaning after firing.
  4. Enhanced Functionality:
    • A sealant applied to the exterior of a firearm can protect its internal components, such as the internal trigger mechanisms, from ingress of moisture and environmental contaminants, ensuring they function reliably and accurately.

Knives:

  1. Corrosion Resistance:
    • Similar to firearms, sealants can help protect knives from rust and corrosion, especially if they are used in moist or outdoor environments.
  2. Improved Maintenance:
    • Sealants can reduce the buildup of grime and other residues on the blade, making cleaning easier and more effective.
  3. Aesthetic Preservation:
    • For knives with decorative or high-quality finishes, sealants can help preserve their appearance by preventing discoloration and wear.
  4. Increased Durability:
    • By providing a protective layer, sealants can enhance the durability of the blade and handle, helping them withstand harsh conditions and rough use.

 

Overall, using sealants on firearms and knives can lead to better performance, lower maintenance requirements, and a longer lifespan for your equipment.
