I just purchased a silicone cloth and 30ml of Bisleys silicone gun oil. If anyone is interested in them I will post them out?

I think, as has been said, if you stick to dampening the cloth and then wiping the exterior surface of the gun over with it, rather than putting the oil on directly, then the gun will come to no harm. And it does result in a beautiful finish, no doubt.
