Hello

I've managed to get my hands on some dri slide to experiment and continue tinkering with my Springer. I believe it was big back in the 80s

I've tried warming up the compression cylinder and putting a few drops in, swirling around and then gently wiped some of the excess out. I then heated the cylinder up and repeated the process a few times.

I'm going to leave it to dry over night as it still feels ever so slightly sticky.

Once it's dry, do I rub off the excess again? I don't get how to burnish it in by buffing. Surely this would just remove it?

Is this the correct process or have I got it wrong? From reading other threads this is how I interpreted it.

Should I put some in the piston too?

Any advice appreciated

Thanks
