waltham_41 52 Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 My Wal Mart does not have dry graphite spray, can anyone suggest any other places and specific brands either at stores or online that I can find some for use in my 10 rd mags and MD20 drum? My main concern is that I do not get one with a propellant that eats plastic. Also, would it hurt to spray some up in the bolt area of the shotty? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Elkhound 91 Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 That's a good price. I think my under-supplied work bench needs to be stocked with some spray graphite lube. WJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

patriot 7,197 Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 You can get it at most auto parts stores. No need to stoop so low as to go to walmart Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No need to stoop so low as to go to walmart None of them in my area have it in spray cans. I found some spray "graphited" lock fluid at a small local hardware store, but when I test sprayed it on a old keyboard, it stayed fairly wet even after "drying", so I am going to pass. I guess I am going to order the stuff I linked to, and see if it works on on the old keyboard before spraying any of my mags Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lance 4 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I wouldn't use the graphite spray on anything, stick to the powder. the spray leaves a layer almost like paint and it gums up your action. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I suggested the Catepillar(as in bulldozer) graphite. It's dry in seconds and doesn't gum up. I also use it inside magazines and on springs and followers.

Ronswin 26 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 (edited) This is what we use in our shop here at work: Dry Graphite Lube (aerosol) It's already on my AGP ten round mags and MD drum mag (neutral to most plastics). It will also refinish military M-16 mags with the parkerized/ graphite coatings back close to original issue finish. Grainger will USPS ship to your door.

G O B 3,516 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I use molly anti=seeze on the spring in my MD-20 and on the blind plug threads (1/2 adjuster), as wellas on the rails and sliding contact points of the trigger group. Inside plastic mags I use silicine spray lube and wipe ALLMOST dry. I gave up on graphite sprays because they clump and get gummy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
