Pros & Cons
Pros
Suggest you keep your fishing lines in a container seperate from your reels if you use reel x. Makes the reel like new! Continues to last through a long season of saltwater fishing.
A drop applied onto each shaft bearing and onto the level wind mechanism results in a noticeable improvement in both casting distance and smoothness. The long thin spout on the bottle is perfect for getting into bearings and tight spaces.
The applicator tip is perfect for getting the lube right where you want it. Protection and lubrication lasts much longer than regular oils. A little goes a long way and you will find many uses for small lube jobs.
Cons
Reel-x melted or dissolved the rubber seal at the foot of the rotor body on my two penn conquer 4000 reels. Unlike many other metal lubricants i use, and have used, 'corrosion x' does not evenly coat the barrel. I am not brave enough to use this stuff... Read More

Identical reels but with the two different lubes tosee if i can notice any difference in performance

Because of the price i only use it for spool bearings where it gives great freespool spin
Packaging/appearance
The only thing that bugs me is the smell of this lubricant

I researched recommended best oils for lubing reels and this performed as advertised
It is overkill compared to some other brands but i keep buying it because it works well
