I just like the ole' Outer's rust preventative lubricant, but Rem-Oil works just fine, as well.

Dexron has good lube, temperature, and detergent qualities.

STP is an excellent lube that sticks to metal and won't dry out for along time.

Cheapest general purpose do-it-all lubricant I could find at Ace Hardware. Seems to work fine. Cost a little over a dollar a can. Next time my wife lets me have some folding money I'll buy one of the fancy spray lubricants with teflon or graphite or whammo or whatever's fashionable nowadays.

Ed's Red costs about $6.00 per half gallon.

I like aeresol Remoil, but will have to say that E.R. Shaw sent Ed's Red with their barrel to me. How could I not like Ed's?
