    Silicone oil is what people use on airsoft products. You can buy it in remote control car shops. There are other sources too but I'm not sure. I got mine online from firesupport.co.uk.

    Is that the exact name ?
    Could you get it in toy stores ?

    I got silicone gun oil and grease from airsoft-scotland. Cheap enough and shipping time was pretty swift. Just a couple of days.

    You should be able to get it in car part & maintenance stores, and possibly in the larger hardware outlets.

    halfords: €7.50 for 3 in 1 Silicone spray(yellow one).

    B&Q in the west?...they might. ASk the local garage if they know where sells it.

    I use two types....

    Halfords Silicone Lubricant - for rubber and plastics (Yellow can with grey top)

    And

    3-1 Silicone spray lubricant (Yellow can with red cap)

    The latter is the one that most people here would use (I imagine)

    Oh, an you can buy them in Halfords.
