Does silicone lube dry?


Yes, and almost instantly, it's made like as Azatotht says.

To find out if it's flammable, why not test it once it's dry? Spray it on some plastic or metal, wait for it to dry, then make sparks next to it, or even put a flame to it.

So i guess the dry lube sprays actually dry after beeing sprayed ... but the other one Aljo is using doesnt seems to be of the right kind.




Yes it is, it dries instantly.
Thare are 2 different silicone lubricants, one is grease and the other is the one that dries instantly like mine.

Thats what a little Google-ing gave me too..

But from what i read, there are 2 kind of cans, the normal silicone one is flammable (like the one in your picture) and the "dry" one is chemically inert... Seems like the "dry" word in very important and should be written on the can..

This is it for my lunch time investigation, someone with more understanding will hopefully chime in

Like a,  Before and After, kind of thing?

Sure, I can even do with it my Catacomb, it's not lubricated yet.

Just spitballing here, but I think this "dry" lube that keeps being discussed here is the type that Mbug posted earlier.  It's a graphite powder that acts as a lubricant, and does not require any sort of aerosol propellant for application.  "Dry" lube starts out dry, and finishes dry.  The stuff that Aljo is using should not be considered a "dry" lube, because it is not.

Very simple... the lube is not always the problem... the can is.

General propellant used in any spray can:  mixtures of volatile hydrocarbons, typically propane, n-butane and isobutane. Dimethyl ether (DME) and methyl ethyl ether are also used. All these have the disadvantage of being flammable.

and they don't necessarily evaporate instantly...
