Rem Oil- How often are you reapplying?
Rem Oil- How often are you reapplying?
Anybody using Rem oil? I wanted to use it on my Browning Citori Reel (not shotgun) by BPS. It is extremely fast and I was wondering how often are you reapplying?

First clean out the bearings first with carb cleaner or brake clean, then soak them in ACETONE and let dry before reoiling wth Rem oil, Rem oil will only last maybe a week of hard fishing, that is the down side U will have to reoil alot more. ONLY ONE drop of Rem oil per bearing.

Rem Oil is crazy fast. If you are looking to get every bit of performance out of your reel, then I think you'll be quite pleased The downsides are re-oiling often (back when I used it for surfcasting, I was lucky to get two days of fishing w/o re-applying rem oil) and it can be quite messy. The way the bottle is designed (often leaks and the hole is a little big and fat for such a thin oil) can make it tricky to apply the amount of 1 drop, which is actually a bit too much, and you'll soon find that it will 'zing' off the bearings leaving a good amount of residue within the reel frame.

I like Friction Zero it comes in a can and U spray it in the bearings, Friction Zero lube is as light / fast as Rem Oil.
