Best thing to use is lubricant from a Monarch Marking pricing gun. I have no idea how you can get a hold of the stuff. I have had the same two bottles of it from when I used to work in a grocery store. I have used this stuff on my mountain bikes for years because I only need to put one drop per link on the chain and It repels dust and dirt very well. I will try to see if I can find out some more info on it for purchase. Now you can always get a hold of food grade mineral oil (The same stuff used to sharpen knives)Hope this helps!
