[R-390] Wet vs dry lubes?

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Heading back to my list ….

Can you get the stuff back out (clean it up)?

Does it get all over the place?

With dry lube, less is more. You very much do *not* want 5 pounds (or even 5 ounces) of the stuff in your gizmo. That’s true if it’s an R-390(A or not an A) or if it’s an M1911(A or not an A). It might not be true if it’s a city bus.
