Reviews
Been using LPS 3 for almost 10 years. Best rust inhibitor money can buy. And best of all, it really does what is says it can do. Stays on and is not washed away by rain or slush.
Love this stuff. Has many uses from cable lube and protect-ant for my outdoor car hoist to clean and lube my motorcycle chain. Evaporates off and leaves a waxy lube protection.
Seems to be a great product. I’m using it as a rustproofing on my new Silverado. Time will tell the longevity but it applies well and has good even coverage. I have since used it in 3 more vehicles. Hopefully it last through one winter.
I use Lps 3 to help prevent corrosion on automotive brake lines. Great product, but difficult to find in local stores.
fantastic product. used it to undercoat my 2019 Silverado. time will tell the longevity. great service and fast shipping from aircraft spruce.
Great easy to use lubricant for all your aviation needs.
Product has protected our Bell 206 blades for over thirty years. Have never had a blade corrosion repair since I started wiping blades down weekly with LPS3. Shipping from Aircraft Spruce is a problem. Two of four gallons bottoms were deformed in shipment. They arent leaking, but dont want to stay upright.
Ok in certain applications. does not penetrate like corrosion x or acf-50. It is NOT a lubricant, it doesnt penetrate well and leads to messy, dirt attracting buildup. I wish people would not use it as a lube. My view is that it only seals things off and should be used thoughtfully as it will also seal things like moisture IN.
Q&A
Yes, it meets MIL-PRF-16173E Grade 2 Class 1. Please see the Approvals tab for additional spec info.
LPS 3 cannot be used in the manner described. It can be applied to a dry, rusted surfaces that has had any loosely adhered corrosion removed. It will not convert the rust but will halt further corrosion from occurring. It cannot be painted over.
I believe it would be safe, but it is brown in color and could stain the paint. I would not recommend it for this application.
This product is a common use product, not aviation specific. It does not have a specific approval application guide. You would need to check your engine manual for storage procedures.
