Thank you. This is really good advice. Lubricating my marker frequently has not been on top of mind. I will definetly recommend this to fellow paintball players.

As for the best lubricant to use. I guess there are lot of different products on the market and will need to research what the best lubricants are.

From what I can remember also, Smart Parts Sl33k and Dow Slick lube are the same thing: Dow33.

LurkerLube and Hatersauce are better choices for guns that require grease.

I agree with Bill. My Sleek sucked in cold weather.

I really liked Hater Sauce for spools. But I use Dow 55 now, because the slight swells in orings are better for sealing in my gun.

While Dow33 is a decent lubricant, it usually has problems in cold weather. Also the breakdown time is rather short compared with more modern lubricants.

In summary, there are a lot of better alternatives.
