How does Corrosion X compare to Aquashield: Lets make a mess with while playing with some new lube

Corrosion X: amzn.to/2BFMqtC
Aqua Shield goo.gl/DvWt6L

[@ChiefToad]

That stuff is great. It has the consistency of fresh construction adhesive(the PL polyurethane stuff) Super high viscosity along with a bit of elastomeric properties.

[@TackleAdvisors]

+mrtoady2 have you used it? This was a first look for a guy on sol. Gonna pack it in some bearings. Also Going to see how it reacts if I thin it out with some cx oil. If it still retains its tackyness it could prove very useful in fw reels. Either way I like it's properties. One of its uses is for underwater bearings in saltwater

[@ChiefToad]

Your video is the first time I have ever seen it. I was surprised at the properties it exhibited. Was just remarking about it.

[@allanknudsen7483]

@Tackle Advisors Just love your content, would you mind doing a review of the oil and grease that you use? would be nice if you could cover ball bearings, carbontex drags, gear grease (what parts you grease) and which part you oil (type of oil) thank you!

[@nobody46820]

Aqua Shield has many marine applications, once applied, that's it! Used it in the offshore oil field industry for years.

[@mathieufournier8660]

_"I've used a lot of lube. Tell your friends."_

[@svantelofroth9879]

I use glue because it's sticky and keeps water out of my reel.

[@Tu-rn1ue]

Could we get an update on this? I'm getting into cleaning my own reels and while penn's grease has been solid for me so far, this stuff seems great and I'm thinking about buying a tube after watching this video. Thanks!

[@jeffsmith825]

Man, lots of lube questions here but I hope people realize you're not (yet) using this on gears or bearings! I service probably 100 reels a year or so, mainly friends and friends of friends type deal, and I get asked what grease and oil to use all the time. I tell them one that's made for fishing reels because if I don't they go to a hardware store or automotive store and buy some crazy axle grease type stuff. Personally, depends on the reel and the usage. CorrossionX is a winner in my book for most applications as it just stays out.

[@joshmoore2893]

We used to buy that stuff if 5 gallon buckets, then spread it around 10 and 15 ton equiptment on a boat with a 9" paint roller and extention. Jesus WHAT A MESS!!!

[@smoovefishing]

It would be a nightmare to clean when it time to tear apart and oil and clean your reel

[@nobody46820]

Yes, it will be.

[@jeffsmith8958]

Not sure I want to deal with that mess! I did a test over the last week of 10 reel greases I have. Took some time but I put the same exact amount (from a syringe type thing) on a main gear and pinion gear in a baitcaster and turned the handle 200 times. EVERY SINGLE ONE of them turned a little darker and built up on the base of the pinion gear! The gears were still lubricated but that build up drives me nuts since I use very little grease. I bought corrosion x and this aqua shield goo and will be repeating the process maybe they’ll stay better! My father is a dentist so I used his ultra sonic between each grease as to create a fair playing field!

[@jeffsmith8958]

Btw the supposed “winner” of my test was both hot sauce and cals tan which still built up but didn’t change color as dramatically. Penn blue grease was penn black grease after 200 turns of the handle.

[@jeffsmith8958]

So corrosion x grease won the stay in place and maintain integrity contest. Aqua shield is not for baitcasters in my opinion. It stayed in place but the reel became very sluggish. I’ll be using corrosion x grease on all my SW gear going forward. I have a 1lb tub of cals that will now be drag specific and corrosion x will be gears and seals.

[@joebyrne6211]

Good video, but I’ll stick with Penn Blue Grease.

[@HighwayRamos]

Well, I guess it's not going to fling off the gears much... Maybe a layer of serious assembly Moly with some of this gunky goo to both protect it and keep it in place?

[@riley7796]

This video needs like cartoon sound effects when u stretch and play with the lube haha

[@ferndelisle]

Reminds me of assembly lube for rebuilding engines but a little thicker

[@wayned5872]

Ever try...NEVER SIEZE .. n gears & such? I use the copper based of said product on some of my older diawas, those reels still hold strong

[@TackleAdvisors]

+Wayne D it reminds me of noalox.. Lol

[@Slipsch]

@Tackle Advisors I was wonder if u tried the Aquashield for the main gear yet, if u did, how does it perform, I'm planning to get that haha

[@damieno224]

X2.... curious

[@RIchardDavidson007]

Watch it doesn't crawl up your arm.

[@archades54]

Ever tried Inox mx3 oil, mx6 and mx8 greases? PTFE based. I use them in my reels.

[@Slazmoservicing4209]

He wouldn't get the access to Inox as we do in Australia...

[@jamesbayfishing9583]

Would love to see how that stuff dose on gears. At least you will know it's not going anywhere lol

[@TackleAdvisors]

Wow...haven't seen you here in awhile buddy!!! I tried it on an idler gear on a metanium dc. Very interesting stuff. It's like that motoro oil demonstration at the counter of automotive stores. It pulls itself along instead of just leaving that clump of grease that once it's squeezed out. does nothing but take up space. Gonna try it on gearing in over the next few days.

[@jamesbayfishing9583]

Tackle Advisors haha yep been really busy with college. Just trying to catch up on all your new videos. Pretty sure I'm gonna have to get a tube of this stuff to try it out myself. Thanks for the video as usual

[@TackleAdvisors]

+james bay fishing good for you man! Focus on that and you'll have all the time to fish down the road! Hold off on it for now. It may or may not be worth the Hassel. I'll find out soon enough and will include it in my saltwater prep tutorial if it is

[@jamesbayfishing9583]

Tackle Advisors alright thanks man

[@bestthingsinceslicedrice]

Im scared using this on a Daiwa Certate Lt and lose that buttery smoothness

[@MisterJon66]

Scoob, did you manage to was the stuff off your hands? Just soap & water or did you haven't use alcohol or other solvent?

[@TackleAdvisors]

Soap and water and a few washings.

[@rtruite]

Hello. Normaly I send my reels to be services, however after seen your videos I will start doing it myself. What different lubes do you recommend?

[@morganahmed6245]

What about white grease ( cyclo ) brand ...can i use it for lubricating the fishing Reels ??

[@masyafish84]

So, what's your conclusion on using Aquashield in bearings and in general, Fishing reels?

[@TackleAdvisors]

In bearings it'll slow em down too much. It needs cutting. The mix I use is all I use now

[@DualityV2_]

wondering... the CorrosionX grease, does it have a nasty odour/smell like the reelX oil?

[@allanknudsen7483]

@Tackle Advisors what grease would you recommend for a Shimano Stradic Ci4+FB 2500 gear grease? the one I use doesn't really stick to the inside gears, and I have to regrease too often to keep the reel buttersmooth. Thank you!

[@animalkangboangaka]

Have tried using the aqua shield on the main gears? Whats you conclusion?

[@fresh2salt318]

How well does it stay in gears after a long period of fishing ?

[@tphvictims5101]

WOW is right. 👍🏻

[@Gusbass-md2ii]

Is the corrosion x oil/corrosion inhibitor for reels any good? The kind you put in the bearings to protect it from saltwater.

[@TackleAdvisors]

I use the oil and grease all over reels and found it works great!The only oils i use anymore are tsi 321 and corrosion x. Both protect very well.

[@freddieskates3899]

What do you recommend for drag washers and gears?(saltwater)

[@bobhelmuth4600]

What kind of grease do you recommend for freshwater

[@amoshinkley1864]

Hi, I was wondering if you have seen the Wright & McGill Skeet Victory II Casting Reel on tackle warehouse? it looks VERY similar to the Kastking reel you played with.

[@TackleAdvisors]

oooooooffff.............that's painful to see. 80 bucks too!! I'd bet my left foot that it would fit nicely as a 4th player in the frankenreel video I put out earlier in the year. Junk junk junk At 80$ you can get a fuego ct which is a real baitcaster that is worth keeping around and will last if you are new and growing into baitcasting goo.gl/Fwcy3m And for 10$ more you can get a tatula. goo.gl/gz1Dhz To me that says quite a bit about the guy putting his name on a piece of junk and selling it for twice the price as the other pieces of junk. Even if the 80$ version had titanium gears and 100% SiNi bearings. It's still be an absolute piece of plastic junk with an awful braking system.

[@wpegg1987]

Add the Ardent Arrow on TW to that list.

[@TackleAdvisors]

Yup...Ardent has been guilty of that for awhile now. Junk junk junk

[@jeffsmith8958]

It’s another of the plastic toys worth $12 sold for $75! Daiwa and Shimano both make $75-100 reels of MUCHHH higher quality!

[@jeffsmith8958]

Or exactly what TA said haha he’s quick to the punch!!

[@jeffsmith8958]

I have been using this cheap stuff called “real magic” to clean the insides of reels recently and somehow it’s excellent. I’m kinda nutty though when I service my reels I tear them down completely and really clean everything, let it dry for a few hours then I use either tan or purple cals. People don’t use it for gears I guess but it’s worked better than the others I’ve used on everything! Pricey though.

[@FloatTubeCharlie]

That’s the real sticky icky

[@wayned5872]

Try...BALLISTOL OIL

[@johnmortensen7212]

How fluid with this Aquashield be in cold temperatures?

[@TackleAdvisors]

It will thicken up like pretty much every other grease out there. There isn't a grease that i've used and i've used a ton that doesn't thicken up when cold. But if you grease lightly and only have it run on a film it really doesn't matter much.

[@michielhuygelier6953]

there's so much opportunity for; " that's what she said " in here.

[@652barry]

So did it work?

[@nerdyherper915]

Is this fishing ASMR

[@teamflanneloutdoors5631]

Ordered some more fee bay goodies with your link, bg2500 on the way- hope that helps. Very interesting grease! Cant help but wonder about possible applications in other fields, we shall see as I'm a bit of a lubrication nut myself LOL.

[@TackleAdvisors]

Aweseome!! Thanks Brotha!!! That definitely helps!! I'm doing the maintenance tutorial and saltwater prep tutorial now. Just packed my first bearing with it. Its good stuff. A pain in the arse to work with though...An absolute royal pain in the arse. Gets everywhere and tough to wipe off.

[@albertlemont5471]

It's the green Venom! Your screwed

[@trentw26]

I'm not sure why, but I kinda want to eat it...

[@gizmo33rd]

Do you recommend it by now

[@TackleAdvisors]

Yes.. Just be careful where you get it and I cut it with Corrosion X oil for certain applications

[@lesrinehart933]

My granddaughter would say it looks like Slime

[@TackleAdvisors]

She wouldn't want to play with this stuff lolol

[@lesrinehart933]

Tackle Advisors nope

[@lesrinehart933]

I’m going to get some but the corrosion block seems to be pretty good.

[@rusyaidi4]

Which do you recommend?i do both fw and sw fishing.

[@leokolev]

Thanks! Really good video! +++ Good mozzarella :))))))

[@L_A_C_K_I_N_G]

What's your opinion on Cal's grease?

[@TackleAdvisors]

+SaltF4 I've used cals on drag washers for years. Never used it elsewhere. Works great for that.

[@i.o.3563]

Dam, I can hardly watch this shit is put on a reel. And the tool... that's savage))))). Has anyone heard of specially created greases for reels?

[@TackleAdvisors]

Not sure what you mean?

[@i.o.3563]

))joking. I was referring to using grease not meant for reels, it's crazy sticky. And this shovel to put it on))) instead of a little paint brush. Putting so much under the handle may cause it penetrate into ball bearing and make rotating harder. Yes, I understand the protection, but this is really overkill. I just can't get this approach. Do you put any cheap oil into your car? Maybe its' a better idea to use Daiwa's grease? Or other intended for that purpose.

[@TackleAdvisors]

Gotcha :) Oh and it will most definitely make rotation harder and make the reel more sluggish and tight feeling. But if fishing in the surf. Using a reel without any seals. IT WILL make it last much much longer than if not done this way. The ball bearings have been opened and packed with grease. So adding the grease on the outside is the least of the ball bearings worries :) I have daiwas grease and others. It's very thin. Good for freshwater light reels where I want a free and light spinning reel But other greases work just as well if not better. As long as they are applied properly. Once a reel runs in..The reel only runs on the film left behind. Daiwa and Office ZPI is pricey since they retail package and only sell tiny amounts. Similar items are often available for cheaper....ya just gotta experiment enough to find them. I'll take corrosion x and yamalube over shimano grease any day. And TSI 321 or Corrosion x oil over their oil as well. I'll even take tsi or tungsten disulfied over zpi or alchemy oil as well.

[@i.o.3563]

I've never fished in surf, but hate it already))) What do you mean by taking tungsten disulfied over zpi? You put it after applying oil on the top? Anyway there should be another solution. Maybe called Stella SW or Twin SW))))

[@TackleAdvisors]

Tungsten disulfide in freshwater baitcasters instead of oil. I have stella sw's and saltigas had saragosa sw's and zeebass and vanstaal. Stellas will take splashes...but get crunchy with sand. Same as saragosas. But those are 100$ reels vs 500$ plus.
