If possible, remove the hand grips, clean and prepare.
INITIAL TREATMENT:
Applying MILITEC-1® to a firearm for the first time is a two-step process: (1) Application and (2) Firing.
STEP ONE: APPLICATION.
Now that the firearm is clean and dry, apply a light film of MILITEC-1® to all surfaces, including the bore. Burnish/polish MILITEC-1® into exterior surfaces by rubbing rapidly using a cloth lightly dampened with MILITEC-1®. Sparingly apply drops into the action, concentrating on springs, moving parts and metal-to-metal contact areas. If your firearm has a magazine, be sure to apply MILITEC-1® both inside and out. Leave a very light film of MILITEC-1® on all surfaces during reassembly. Now proceed to Step Two.
STEP TWO: FIRING.
Once you fire your weapon enough times to reach operating temperatures, the heat and friction will activate MILITEC-1®, strengthening the bonding process that was started in Step One. While firing, MILITEC-1® creates a self-lubricating, water-repelling, dry compound within the gunmetal.
ADDITIONAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
If Step Two is not immediately possible, consider applying low heat to the firearm to facilitate the bonding process until you can perform Step Two. In field conditions, place your lubed firearm in the sun underneath black plastic or a similar ventilated heat source for at least two hours. Alternatively, you may use a heat gun, hairdryer, burnishing or polishing tool to heat the gunmetal. In heat controlled environments, do not exceed 150°F (65°C).
