Hi

Does anyone know where i can pick up some?

Any Restaraunt Equipment supplier. We use it for O rings on ice cream makers

It might be easier to just buy it a few drinks instead. Just a thought...

Check a local dive shop. I bought some from http://www.leisurepro.com/catalog.aspx in the city.

silicone spray is available at the home depot on hamilton ave aisle 10 towards the back. 4 bucks

Vasoline works just as well too.

Actually,
Vasoline should not be used on o-rings.

The only brand is liquid wrench.

Why would vasoline not work on o-rings. I never knew vasoline had detrimental effects on rubber.

 

[pecan2phat]

I read somewhere about petroleum based products are not good for o-rings. Need to dig it up.

 

[georgelc86]

Sounds interesting I will have to join you in that research.

vasoline will harden the o-ring after a long time.

From what i hear. If it is only a few bucks, I dont' want to take the risk.

Vasoline is petroleum based and it will eventually dry out rubber o rings

Do you know if liquid wrench is 100% silicone?
