[AT] Favorite (non gumming) spray lube?

Are you asking about lube? or penetrating oil?  I don't consider any of
the products such as WD-40, PB Blaster, Liquid Wrench, Kroil, etc, to be
good lubes.  When I want to lubricate something that is really delicate,
I fall back on the products put out by Bachmann (the model train
people).  Those are real oils, non-sticky, non-spray, and terribly
expensive.  But you know this already.  You lived a former life with
sewing machines and know first-hand what the problems are with the
multipurpose oils.

	Just wondering what everybody's favorite (non Gumming) spray
lube might be. I 
say non gumming because I keep remembering back when WD-40 first came
out I was 
using it on everything in sight. Lots of stuff got a little sticky...
One item 
was an old portable typewriter that worked really great for about two
weeks 
then started hanging up keys left and right. As I recall I finally used
some 
kerosene on it with an eye-dropper. For most common stuff I just use the

generic Wally World "Tech" version of WD-40. It is OK for most stuff and
very 
cheap.
	For coarser stuff I like the spray "Lube jell" that I get from
Wally World. I 
think it says "Primus" on the can.
	I was just looking for something different for "delicates" (no,
not 
underwear).   :-)
