To lubricate or not? What lubricants to use. Warnings, rust and frozen mechanisms.
Probably the best way. Mr Sheen is a water based so keep it away from from none stainless steel. Sure-loc say "don't use lubricants" so I don't. Oil/grease will attract dirt. This will eventually lead to wear, unless you continually keep cleaning the sight. Not sure it's needed. Most sights are designed to be used lubricant free. As with most moving part machines, sights wear out too. Some sights are better than others. It depends on the design if lubricant is a good idea or not. Sure-loc sights have ball bearings for the click stops adjustment. I find a little grease on these makes the whole thing nicer to use. But I don't lube the sight track.cliveanne said:Strip it down, clean it, polish it with Mr. Sheen
