The first time I did my 97K back in 2010ish, I used ultimox 226 and used way too much and it got in front of the piston seal. It didn't detonate or diesel, but there was a hint of a vapor or mistwill a non-petrol base grease detonate even if it looked like that
i use ULTIMOX 226 on my pistols, it is just Krytox and at low power levels of the pistols I'm very happy with the results
thank for the warning
from the lube being pushed through the TP...lol.
I would wipe it off the breech seal area with a q-tip. I later tore it back apart and cleaned it all out then relubed very sparingly. I've learned a lot since then. Today I only smear a thin thin coat around the piston seal, then work it in and out of the compression tube. I'll then take the piston back out and look to see if any lube is pushed to the front of the seal, if not, I'll put it back together. It really doesn't take much at all. And if a tiny amount does make it in front of the piston seal, it will be fine.
