Hi guys. While trying to decide between graphite + lithium or Ultra Slick Multipurpose Grease, I came across Ultra Slick Synthetic Brake Lubricant. Reading the product description, it seemed to be better than the multipurpose stuff while being easier to use than graphite. It's got a better temperature range (-54° C vs... as I recall, -28° C), specifically states that it's safe for rubber and plastic, and it contains synthetic oils as opposed to petroleum oils.

Upon squeezing some out, I immediately realized that it might be too thick - because I'm an idiot, I didn't consider how thick a lubricant meant for car brakes might be. I applied it to my bolt carrier anyway - I'm not sure if there's additional friction, but it's functioning well. I think it's a keeper.
