Several years ago I bought a can of Naval Ordinance (I will call it cream) at the Silverado Gun Show in Ponoma. (remember that guys). When I lived in the PRK in the Bay area my gun safe was kept in the garage. The place was extremely damp most of the time so I coated all my firearms with it. The stuff left what looked like a coat of wax on the firearms but it would wipe clean with a rag and a patch. The firearms I did not shoot got coated under the stock and in assessable places. None of my firearms rusted as the result of the application unfortunately I have never seen it again. Tonight I will update this thread with the can info but it was a white cream about the consistency of 20-weight oil. It dried to a wax consistency but wiped off easily. I would bet the stuff is WWII era.
OK it is Grease Aircraft Ordinance MIL-L-19701B
Royal Lubricants Co Inc. Cirica 8/85
It says for lubrication of Ammunition and Guns Only.
So I was mistaken I don't know how I thought is was Naval Ordinance.
