    PPS lube question

    I'm getting ready to rebuild an L7 valve and thr only lube I've got on hand is the PPS stuff that came in the nail polish bottle a white lith in a spray can.

    Which lube should I use?

    Personally I use the agd gun oil they still sell. Pretty much any lube should work fine, just don't use grease.

      I am fresh out of gold cup and tend to just use white lith on tank rings, I thought the PPS stuff would be good but just wanted to make sure.

        Synthetic air tool oil is what you want to use and that is what is in PPS's little bottle. Synthetic air tool oil does go bad (eventually) but when it does it starts to get cloudy so if it is clear (blue/green) it should be fine.

          Synthetic air tool oil comes in a bucket for 1$. It will work on all markers, as they are just glorified air tools. Grease, on the other hand, is where you need to pay attention to.

            The one place you definitely can use white lithium is on the reg piston spring pack. For everything else in an Automag, use synthetic air tool oil.
