Product Information

A hard, waxy lubricant suitable for projectile lubrication. This lube can either be melted for pan lubing, or used in a press lube and sizing tool. We love that it comes in a bunch of flavors–from cherry vanilla to pina colada to cater to a variety of taste preferences. It’s sugar-free, but it does contain aspartame. There’s some mixed messaging around the safety of aspartame for internal use, so you may be best off using this exclusively for oral or non-penetrative sex. There are many reasons you might be interested in making your own lube (beyond being in a desperate situation where you’re with your partner and you run out, and you had no idea you were low on lube).

Apply copious amounts of lube to the hand and arm and continue reapply for major milestones. Remember that the hole and rings will scrape or brush off excess lube and leave the fist and arm drier than expected. Often, almond oil is used as a last-ditch choice. It definitely works as a lubricant, however, you should know that it can be pretty risky, because if you or your partner has a nut allergy, there’s a high chance that applying almond oil topically–no matter where on your body you apply it–can cause an allergic reaction. If you know for sure neither of you are allergic and you’re desperate for something slippery, this will be fine. However, it’s a good idea to consult with a medical professional before you experiment with applying almond oil to genitals.

Update History

Can you use lotion for lube? Probably not the greatest idea. Honey as lube, even though it may seem “natural,” also isn’t the way to go. Gynecologist Talia Crawford, MD, explains why and answers the question, “What can I use instead of lube?” Types of lubricants part real beeswax -- Beware of today's toilet seals, which are not real beeswax but petroleum-based. Get real beeswax, not the synthetic stuff. Though hobby shops may carry small cakes of beeswax, it’s expensive. Your best bet to find it will be at “Mountain Man” Rendezvous, Renaissance Fairs and from local beekeepers. The ultimate all round muzzle loading lubricant.

From the limited testing I conducted, both lubes performed extremely well. I personally prefer the standard SPG Lube because it is softer than SPG Tropic and with years of shooting experience with the standard SPG Lube, I trust it to perform well in all shooting environments that are common to my shooting regimen. When I say perform it means my barrel does not lead, fouling remains soft from one shot to the next (when a blow tube is used), and I always get a soft grease “cookie” on the muzzle of the barrel after a string of fire. But more importantly, the loads will consistently shoot a minute of angle and even better when I’m steady on the gun. However, I never doubt the experiences of others who may shoot in entirely different conditions than I do. The SPG Tropic lube may very well improve accuracy for those who regularly compete in extreme heat and low humidity. A lubricant is a liquid specially formulated for intimate use. There are various types of lubes available, including flavoured, and tingly or warming lubes to boost your pleasure experience, and they come (excuse the pun) in different consistencies to improve different types of sex acts or suit different needs.
