i bought a similar product but it was 200g tub cost circa £6 from the same site as your post. i checked out the specs and it had a rating over in excess of 300 deg for ignition. i use it on piston seals, guides, spring and trigger. impressed, i have had no dieseling etc, very easy to use, i apply it with a cotton bud sparingly.

Just had a look at the 200 gram tub does it thicken at all in the piston tube or stay slippery and what is it like compared to Molly.stokie99

Sounds good, but as I understand it, silicone is not a good lubricant for metal to metal contact. Something to do with poor boundary strength (the bit that keeps the metal surfaces apart). It does however have good water resisting properties, and is kind to elastomers. Maybe the silicone is just a high temperature & water resistant carrier for the PTFE, which does have good lubricating properties (if you can keep the micro-particles of PTFE where they're needed).

Maybe someone can correct me if the above isn't quite right?

I agree completely.
Silicone grease supplied at metal-to-metal contact / gliding faces is a GUARANTEE for GALLING. I learned this from experience.
Metal-to-metal: MoS2 only for me.
This grease may be fine at metal-to-synthecis but never in a trigger.

Generally the offer looks for me like the usual ripp-off. Rocket high prices for inferiour products.
If anyone likes to try - go get it. Me not for sure.

Happy shooting

it stays slippery, i use it sparringly, seems to work very well.

This may be true with silicone on its own but this product is a fully synthetic grease with loads of Teflon a combination of greases I don't think I will loose any sleep worrying if my trigger seizes up after 10 shots imo cheers stokie
