VK-I was not suggesting you break the rules- I was pointing out you can buy cans of various stuff that say "Dry lube" right on the can, but in fact under a scope you see liquid. Some "Dry Teflon" lubes still have some liquid Krytox in them that show up only under a scope-so just be warned "Dry Lube" does not mean the lube is 100% dry. How you took this information and thought I was suggesting it was OK to bend the rules is not what my goal was. My goal was information some may not have considered.

Not suggesting that you were. My point was simply that while some lubes (such as the sprays you mentioned) are a little ambiguous as to whether they are "dry" or not, there's no ambiguity when it comes to running oil. Oil is never dry.

I finally have had enough , when i was adding the graphite to my 2 cars tonight i realized how much i hate the stuff. it is all over the side of my pink car that i spent 2 weeks painting and as soon as i put the wheels on last week poof ... graphite everywhere. i didnt care that much it kind of gives the car character but after lubing up the 2 cars tonight i realized what a mess this stuff makes. Cant wait to start running with oil.

anyone else despise graphite as much as me ??

+1000 . I had to prep 7 graphite cars for MA. I HATE GRAPHITE
