"New?" Only if, by "new," you mean "less than 20 years old." I've
been using TriFlow for about that long. BoShield, if you can find
it, is also a good spray lubricant and an exceedingly good rust
preventative.

I have been at this a long time. I have used the chunks of teflon thing for
almost 25 years myself. And that was a real innovation when I discovered it
by accident. I never used the teflon spray myself. I was using my caveman
technique of rubbing the guides of my equipment with the chunks of teflon.
Or building the weight holders with teflon bushings.

Picture this; Ogg, resident gym equipment builder for his cave, rubbing
teflon on his new pulley machine. Ogg, beating his chest, postures and
grunts that his pulley machine is the smoothest runnin' pulley machine in
the whole cave community.

Now you youngsters go along and play with your ipods. Us cavefolks have
work to do.

"Youngster?" Me? LOL! Last summer, or the summer before, whilst on
vacation, stopped into a local coney place to pick up a food order.
Young lady looked at me, asked if I cared to take advantage of their
senior citizens discount. Admittedly, part of that was my own
fault. I now no longer allow my salt & pepper stubble (more salt,
than pepper, these days) to grow more than a day or so whilst on
vacation.

Seriously, Lee, check out TriFlow and BoShield. A large can of
either will last a long, long time, as it doesn't take much of
either. IIRC, you shoot? Good for lubricating and protecting
firearms, but do *not* get any in the barrel, unless you intend
long-term storage. If you do, you'll throw "hot" shots until it's
worn off.

The BoShield is particularly good for protecting the cast-iron bits
of wood-working gear, as well.

Either one is great for bicycles, as the thin coating allowed picks
up far less road grit than oil.
