Valve lube

I wanna lube up my valves so they will keep working good and i was wondering if i were to run some air tool oil in them if it would be bad.

KY jelly

j/k
i heard people use 3 in 1 oil

white lithium grease

the best lube for valves that can have lude is a silicon based lube. ie... silicon spray, paintball gun oil, and some air tool oil.

so then air tool oil is straight if its silocone based? I was thinking of putting this in my tank and then opening up my fills and dups and the same time so it blows through them.

Just keep in mind that anything you use will end up in the bag.

yeah the silicon spray,we use some on or mig guns to keep spatter of of them

'what do you mean?

What he means is the air traveling through the valve will pick up at the least the vapor of what ever product type you use and carry it to the bag. Make sure that what you use is ok for the seals in your valves, wont degrade the rubber your bags are made out of, wont corrode your fittings, and wont rust out your tank or damage any other component dealing with the transfer of the air through the system. You certainly do not want to use WD40. That stuff is bad news and once you atomize it out of your valves it will have the seals in it eaten up may even blow your fittings.
