I am one of the proud owners of two tubs of FWFL. My Lyman lubrisizer is partially full of Lyman super moly. When I switch over to FWFL do I need to clean out the moly, or just pile the new lube on top and keep right on processing bullets?
If I do need to clean out the moly, how do you go about this? I've never cleaned out the lubrisizer before, and hopefully I won't have to.
At first I will be lubing 44 mag bullets (Lyman 429421) that I'll be shooting out of a Contender. These are hunting and plinking loads. Later I will be loading some 311284 30 cal bullets that I shoot off the bench from a 30-06. Thanks.

Max - the hint is heat. Some use a heat lamp, some have used a hair dryer, I use boiling water.

No need to clean the tank. Just add new fuel and keep on a truckin'. ... felix

Max,
Felix doesn't seem to mind, so I wouldn't worry. I have a RCBS lube-sizer and seem to have a mixture of Javelina, RCBS pistol lube and my own paraffin-vaseline-bees'wax concoction in there. I thought that I had cleaned it out enough, but the combination seems to make no difference, as they're all soft lubes. The only way I can tell if there is more of one lube than another on the projectiles is that my lube is pretty smokey, and the RCBS and Javelina lubes smell better.
Cheeky.

I melted my RCBS lubricizer nice and clean using a airgun style paint stripper on low heat. I put all the resulting melted mixture of residues of all my old bullet lubes (Thompson Blue Angel, Veral Smith Blue Commerical and Appache Blue out of the lubriciser into the same bowl as the two bricks of FWFL.

Then I tossed in 3 leftover sticks of Thompson Blue Angel and a half a tub of Appache Blue and melted it all down together, stirred it all up good and poured it into a brand new 1 liter Rubbermaid pop-top container (which will barely fit into my microwave height-wise).

Resulting 1 full liter of solidified lube is a consistent dark blue in color and feels about like Veral's commercial blue stuff in its sticky consistency and relative stiffness.

Since 95+% of it is still FWFL, that's what I'll call it when referring to it in the future. Since the Thompsons and Blue Angel are pure synthetic wax lubes I have probably just functionally stiffened up the FWFL just a little bit by adding them to the mix.

I've had some of the most patriotic bullets you've ever seen Rooster Red and LBT blue.
Don't know if I'm supposed to salute everytime the pistol goes off.

OK. I'm just gonna add the FWFL and keep on pumpin the handle.
Thanks everyone.
