grease and silicone

[gabinator92]

I was wondering if any other grease than grease specially made for AEGs would work. Please tell if you have ever used any other lubricants on your guns. Also does the silicone oil have to be the one meant for AEGs also?

white lithium grease. you can find tubes of it at home depot.

[shogun]

they also have lithium grease in large tubes @ ace hardware fer $2.25

if you talking about cleaning the barrel, any silicone spray will work so long as its just silicone, and not a bunch of petrolium junk like wd40

you can usualy find silicone spray or silicone/with teflon @ automotive stores

white lithium grease is great but I like to use Phil waterproof grease that you can get from any bike shop. that shit is great and it only contaminates if you get dirt into it. I dunno if anyone else has ever used it but I love the stuff (on my bike AND my gearbox.) I wouldnt use it anywhere else though.

ok cool what about the white lithiuum grease that comes in the aeresol? It says it sets up to be a grease that lubricates for a long time. I

I wouldnt trust it... go with something you know is grease before and after

[gabinator92]

well i dont know cuz i just tested it and it spayed out kind of foamy but in a matter of seconds it was whitish grease. It seems just like normal grease

i use use napa premium performance multi-purpouse extreme pressure wheel bearing and chasis grease. wroked fine for me.
but i'm
A) lazy and we had it from working on our bikes
B) VERY poor.

[gabinator92]

I know what you are talking about. It's lithium grease, and will work ok. It's a little thick, so don't over lube or you will end up with a big lub-ie mess. Nothing bad will happen, just a splattery mess.

[Livengood]

... just a splattery mess.

Thats what she said.

Is lithium grease good for both gears and piston?

[gabinator92]

yep you put it on gears, cylinder, bushings and on gearbox under gears.

[Hotcurry]

Get both the grease (for the innards) and the silicon oil for the outards (and the inner barrel). Both are essential.

BTW- Chris I laughed out loud at your sig. Very funny. (got the pistol also, thanks)
