TX200 Maintenance

[gbmarcht]

My TX is still a new gun for me with less than 200 pellets shot. Last night I took off the stock just to look at spring and anything else I could see without dismantling. Its full of factory grease oozing everywhere which can't be good.
I'm very temped to do a take down, clean everything, use moly on spring and guide. I've seen recomendations for using "liquid moly" on piston seals/ breech O-rings and question is, what is liquid moly? Can you just use silicone sparingly?

I'm new to the sport, but I would just shoot the crap out of it. Experts will chime in with legitimate advice.

I’d take it apart and give it a good scrubbing and deburring. Also polish the ends of the springs. I just used a light coating of Moly grease on mine, I also installed a Vortek full power spring kit in mine, it slowed down just a touch from the factory spring, but the shot cycle is so nice.

Thanks, I plan to do exactly that, just still not sure what liquid moly means but holding off on any upgrade. Need to know this gun a lot better before i make that change, just keeping original and doing the basics at this time.

Thanks Guys, sounds like less is more. Need to clean this beautiful gun or won't sleep well.
I now know exactly what to do and what not to; keeping my TX totally stock at this point.
