White lithium out of the tube or can works great. I use it.

I'm not a fan of the white lithium spray tho. But i heard silcon works well on the bolt.

I run an ANS genx reg and i really like it. I havent had any problems with and i dont experience any shoot down. It was very quick too break in and doesnt require much maintenance. The only thing i didnt like was the gauge which goes up too 1200psi. since i run at 170 i barely registered, so i swapped it out for a mac dev 0-700 gauge.

Yea you should use the White Lithium Grease on the Ram. Once a Month i like to take out the ram clean it and put a new coating of lithium grease on it.

I dont doubt you at all, but i thought i heard somewhere that white lithium was too heavy for the RAM. I heard silicon grease would work better on the RAM, while the white lithium works well on the regs and pistons.

Just heard that somewhere..maybe from a local field guy.. Can you confirm white lithium works fine on the RAM?

Silicon Spray is good for the Derlin bolt, regular oil has a possibility of expanding the bolt, thats why it is not recommended on the derlin bolt and silicon spray is. You can use regular gun oil, try to use a non-mineral oil, for the reg, just put 2-3 drops in the air input and fire a dozen times, this will run oil through the reg oiling it up and have it run smoothly.

Nope thats not the eclipse. It's purple...probably means KAPP.

I didn't think you should put ANYTHING on delrin bolts, but I'm an idiot. Correct me if I'm wrong, you shouldn't need to put anything on them.

Yah, probably KAPP>

You really dont need to put anything on the delrin bolt, but you can put a silicon based spray on it to keep it moist.

Just no oil, or it will swell.

Thats what I thought. Got to be Kapp, it matches the KAPP vert adapter (just realized that) in the picture.

Air up your maker, set your main pressure to about 275-250 then turn in the LPR untill you start to hear it his, then back it out one turn (or abouts.)

Hey, if makes you feel better I just noticed the KAPP thing when I mentioned it!
