Very Confused about Lubrication

Re: Very Confused about Lubrication

Its tricky as you want to use a lithium or carbon or amber grease or even a gun oil on metal to metal parts but you don`t want any of that getting into the air seal parts as it will mess up your o-rings.

Anything thick on the outside will pick up soooo much grit/dirt

The spray White 3 in 1 is ok. However make sure you apply it outside if you are going to....It goes EVERYWHERE...lol...Application is not very scientific...

Re: Very Confused about Lubrication

Thanks everyone. Incognito I agree with your suggestions and have gone ahead and bought some gun oil from abbey for the bolt alone. I think it requires oil and not grease or it will totally clog up. Ill apply it tentatively to avoid it getting in the wrong areas.

Anyone have any in depth experience with these types of bolts who can tell me the areas i need to be cautious of getting this type of oil i.e. any rubber washers that it will destroy.

Cheers everyone

Don't link!

Dude none of them items were for sale so I dont get your statement the guy has done nothing wrong, and zero ones lube selection can really suck sometimes so I dont see how showing a link of lube information is a link to a competitor ?
