[wackodacko]

Hi All!

I've been searching the board for the best place/price to buy o-ring grease. Are all o-rings made the same? I know its not advised to use silicon grease on them.. hafta get special oring grease or something. if this is the case, wheres the cheapest place to get em?

Is there a way we could have a section somewhere that has "best buys" .. like i know for batteries its :

All O-rings are not made the same. It depends on the materials it's made from and they are all different. Yes, the o-ring grease is expensive but I'm not willing to take the chance of using the wrong kind and damaging the o-ring. Or maybe I'm just chicken! LOL! I do know that the Sea & Sea grease with the blue cap is safe to use on the yellow O-ring for my Oly C-4040.

You use such a small amount of O-ring grease that the small tubes last for a very long time.
