Armadillo is a polymer protectant for use instead of traditional oils and greases, which leave wet films accumulating dirt, dust and powder residue. These easily rub off causing loss of protection, stains to clothing and a variety of other functional problems. Armadillo prevents these problems by providing a dry, hard shell finish designed to: Protect firearms from the elements while in the field hunting. Inhibit rust and corrosion - even in salt water environments. Provide hard, dry lubrication for slides, rails, magazines, bolts, etc. Inhibit dirt, dust and powder residue buildup. Protect against body perspiration on concealed carry weapons. Protect firearms while put away in gun cases or gun safes – without an oily film. Protect against fingerprint oil and acid when handling firearms.
