hello poeple , how goes it ? I am wondering if anyone has used a dfl (dry film lub) that uses no epoxy or binders thus no forced curing or air dry ? This product (tungsten disulfide) scrapes off with a finger nail . I understand that a really thin film is still there after scraping away , but I need the product to be bound to the aluminum very strong . I was thinking maybe emptying the propellant from cans , then emptying the product into a container and adding a binder of some sort , then applying with my pnuematic spray gun . Any thoughts/experiences/stories/info would be greatly appreciated . Thanx ,
puzzled

I've used dry lubes at work, mostly on rubber weatherstrips to reduce a "rubber itch noise" (GM calls it slip/stick condition). The ones that I have used are made by Wurth and Kent, and contain no silicone (silicone contributes to and actually causes the noise in many cases). They work great for what I use them for, not sure how they'd work in your application though.

Its hard to find but dow corning molykote 321 is probably the best there is, I could not find a small spray can of it so I went with a substitute called lps force 842 dry moly lube
Im no expert but its almost like paint when I sprayed it. I used it to seal my throttle body butterfly plate from air leakage at closed throttle.


Im new on the forum and using my phone to view and post so I apologize for bumping an old thread if its no longer cared for.
