Strengths:
Lasts long (like toothpaste length).
Easy to find
Weaknesses:
Lube has 2 b rele bad to have a weakness
Review:
It works, it lasts long, it's easy to rub onto o-rings and easy to apply it to difficult spots. Shocker Lube is easy to find, and usually cost ten dollars. I use it on my shocker and my max flo reg but I stick with Gold Cup Lubricant and Empire lubricant when I oil blowback markers. The reason why is that blow backs have a lot more friction in the bolt; and more recoil due to the force of the spring caused by the release of the sear.
Conclusion:
Buy it unless you use a blow-back.
To prevent any confustion, I'll list a few of the most popular blowbacks (Spyders, Icons, Mongoose, Tippmans, etc).
This is the lube recommended by smart parts, in use with the impulse. I usuaully pick it up mayb once a couple months. Its a little expensive at 10$ a pop, but it works.
It doesnt smell, which is a plus. The pinkish color is also good for telling where lube was already applyed
Conclusion:
Uhh, good lube? Last long, doesnt smell, works good.
Well i went to go buy some so i could lube up my guns and was pretty surprised at how much it cost me. i dont really care too much but still. this grease stays for a very long time. i only need to relube everything after about 3-4 cases. very durable.

Weaknesses:
None
Review:
This is the best lube on market i know of. It will stay where you put it so it wont be running everwhere and you know its gonna stay in the gun and not drip off the part before you get it put back in the gun. nost of all it lasts a long time i usally shoot about 2 cases through the gun before i lube it again.
Conclusion:
Great product smart parts is great

This is a great lube, very thick and luby, you can keep it on you marker for a while and clean it up then put more on, you dont have to clean it every time you use it, very easy to put on and very easy to clean off, it sticks to the parts like no other and is a very good lube
I dont really know what makes lube better then others. I guess maybe since this is a paste type thing, it doesnt spread to unwanted areas. Ive never used any other lube on my Ion, but i have used gold cup, which smells like piss, on my piranha. Ohh, there is one downside i guess, it is a little expensive.

Strengths:
It lubes and keeps things running smoothly.
Weaknesses:
Tends to get sticky and gooey.
Review:
I used the Dow 33 on both my Impulse and my Intimidator. I never really liked though especially when I started having problems with my ram sticking. Even a fresh good coating tended to get sticky and gooey. When everything starded to get all gummed up I gave up on this lube and switched to Slick Honey. Since then I haven't had any problems with sticking.
Conclusion:
The lube is ok but its not great. It tends to get sticky and gooey which in turn ends up causing a headach of problems. Instead of buying Dow33 I reccomend Slick Honey.

2002 Impulse With Stock Bolt (bought gun used, not sure on everything)
Improved Board
Vertical Max-Flo system
14" All American Barrel
Strengths:
Thick and slick :)
Bright Color
Easy to wash off hands
Weaknesses:
It is very hard to get off of anywhere else on gun
Review:
This has been really just about the only oil i have ever used with my Impulse. It has never given me a problem (even if it is two years old). It is a bright pink, so u can see the lube, and it can last MANY shots, so you do not have to keep relubing in the middle of a tournament (or recreational). Its not so hard to clean off of your hands so much as it is your gun. What I mean by that is, u accidentally wipe it on your trigger (guilty :D) it is a pain in the butt to clean off, and you have to wipe vigourously for a long time. Another problem is that unlike some oils, it is made more specifically for only two guns instead of any gun (the Shocker and Impulse), though my little brother has never had a problem using it on his Raider. So, it seems to work for any gun even though it is designed specifically for the Shocker and Impulse.
Conclusion:
I belive that it is a great lube, and judging from the performance of the crap I've seen put on my friends Tippman 98, this seems to be the superior oil. I would reccomend buying this product for anyones gun, because it seems to work with any gun.
I use this lubricant on my Ion. It is very easy to apply and works great. I have not had any shooting problems with this lube. For those who do not know, Shocker Lube is Dow Corning 33.
When you go to lube your marker, use your finger or a q-tip to apply it. Make sure you apply it evenly, or it can gum up your internals.
What can I say? It's lube, and it works.
Conclusion:
This is a great product, but it's expensive. Nonetheless, a great investment to protect your marker.
