Dow 33 always gunked up way too fast when I had to use it. I used a 33 mix with some oil for a while that was really nice.

55 was OK, but you still need to maintain it as it keeps grit pretty badly.

I've used the DYE lube with good effect, as well as that butter stuff.

If Cinamon butter works well enough ill just use that. dont rerally wanna be spending heaps out on something like lube

as long as it's thin enough it's cool, the problem is that the gunk affects the ram stroke, it's the thing no player cleans and makes the biggest difference.

So invest in long handled Q-tips too

dow 33 is fine imho

i asked the planet tech monkeys and they advised me on pmi gun oil which worked fine for general lubing.
