Gun oil

[Golden_Bootie]

i wanna know if i can use any kind of gun oil in my marker or is paintball oil special in some way.... (which im sure is not but....)

[SilentButDeadly]

Any non petroleum based oils will work. Paintball oils will work too (duh). I use 3 in 1 oil becaues it's cheap and highly accessible.

Don't use any grease like Dow though, that will royally screw up your gun.

Gold cup and 3-1 i use on my spyders and such..

red o.O... what does it say in the ingredients?

[Golden_Bootie]

there is no ingredient...... but in the back its weird cuz they talk about it like its a sealant and an oil.....here is the complete writings:

Exclusive use for all high compression CO2 gas and air gun seals, moving pats and pump actions!

DIRECTIONS:
Proper oiling of Oellguns will eliminate most sealing failures. Use sparingly. Excessive oiling is harmful to gun actions. 3 or 4 drops are sufficient for each seal or oiling point. Apply every 250 shots, or when parts appear dry, or when seal fails to hold compression.



???im really not sure???

[Golden_Bootie]

no it doesnt really answer cuz i wanna know if the red thing is oil or loc tite (the one i have)

Loc Tite is a brand, so if it was Lock Tite it would say "Loc Tite" on there.

Furthermore Lock Tite is thick, similar to nail polish so it would be easily distinguishable to the oil which can be runny.
