Learn how to properly apply Westside Sizzurp Gun Lube for reliable firearm performance. This guide covers cleaning steps and common mistakes to avoid.
Quick answer
Westside Sizzurp Gun Lube keeps your firearm running smoothly, especially under heavy or suppressed use. Apply it after cleaning to reduce friction and prevent jams.
Why Westside Sizzurp works well for high-temp firing
Westside Sizzurp is a high-performance lubricant designed for heavy semi-auto and full-auto schedules, even with suppressors. Its high-temperature formulation stays where you put it, reducing the need for frequent reapplication during long range sessions.
One trade-off: because it's thick, you need to apply it sparingly. Too much can attract carbon and debris, which defeats the purpose. A little goes a long way.
Steps to clean your gun with Westside Sizzurp Gun Lube
- 1. Unload and field strip your firearm: Remove the magazine, check the chamber, and take down the gun to its major components. This gives you access to all friction points. Common mistake: skipping the chamber check. Always visually and physically confirm the gun is empty.
- 2. Clean off old oil and debris: Use a solvent and a clean patch or brush to remove carbon, old lubricant, and fouling. Wipe all surfaces dry before applying new lube. Checkpoint: any leftover solvent can dilute Sizzurp and reduce its effectiveness. Make sure parts are dry.
- 3. Apply a thin coat of Westside Sizzurp to key contact points: Put one drop on slide rails, barrel hood, locking lugs, and trigger mechanism. Spread it with a clean cloth or your finger — it should look wet, not puddled. Common mistake: using too much. Excess lube attracts carbon and can cause malfunctions. Start with less and add if needed.
- 4. Cycle the action and wipe off excess: Rack the slide several times to work the lube into the metal surfaces. Then wipe away any surplus that squeezes out. This prevents buildup. Checkpoint: if you see lube dripping or pooling, you used too much. Remove the excess now.
- 5. Function-check and reassemble: Test the trigger, slide release, and safety (if applicable) to confirm smooth operation. Then put the gun back together for storage or use. Common mistake: forgetting to test function after cleaning. A dry fire (with snap caps) is a quick way to verify everything works.
