In TOOLS ID/Maintenance help? Gerber MP500? February 17, 2023 Share Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest LinkedIn ID/Maintenance help? Gerber MP500? by PreferItMyWay Multi ToolsMultiToolsTools 2 Comments PreferItMyWay 3 years ago Picked up a lot of 5 multitools on eBay, 3 were generic junk, but the stars were a Gerber Suspension and this Gerber. From googling the patent numbers, am I right in guessing this is a 80s MP500? Also simple question, but the tools arrived pretty gunky and clumped up. My thoughts are to clean them using a nylon brush and some Lucasoil CLP. Specifically https://lucasoil.com/products/out-door-line/lucas-extreme-duty-clp Does that sound right? I figure since it works great for my bicycle/firearm/automotive needs, it should be fine for multitools. TIA, expect some reviews soon after I get them cleaned up and played with for a while! nodnarb89 3 years ago Looks like the original Gerber Multi-Plier or Mr. Pinchy.
