Best O-Ring Lubricant for G5 other than DP-40???

LeeDowney · 01-28-2013, 12:29 PM

Hey guys. New to the forum and new to G5. Does anyone have an opinion on what would be the best replacement for the recommended DP-40 lubricant for the G5? I have searched and can't seem to find the DP-40 in any of my local stores.

I've looked online and have seen the Dow 33 and Dow 55 Grease but I'm not sure what the difference is. Also seen Planet Eclipse Gun Grease.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I use Monkey Poo, others use Gunsav, and there are a bunch others I am forgetting the names of atm...I'm old. The DP stuff is not the greatest. I suggest finding a DOW 33 based and you should be good.

monkey poo, gunsav & violent pb jelly are probably the most common ones used on DP markers.

I use lurker lube and it works great! Have tried monkey poo, hater sauce, hater marmalade, and violent pb jelly and I for some reason keep going back to the lurker lube. It's all personal preference when it comes to these lubes but if you find one you like stick with it.

I just haven't ran out of Monkey Poo yet. Will try something different when it's gone. Just for shiggles.
