Alright, so I saw that there was another thread on here about lubricants safe for the cylinder on a sniper rifle. I did not want to bump it up from the dead, so I made a new thread.
I have been using some silicon oil on my cylinder but want to try something else. Mainly because what is all over the piston and cylinder is grease. Just wondering if I should apply that instead.
When I first opened up my rifle (awhile ago) I noticed there was grease slapped on the cylinder parts everywhere. I am going through a total clean up with my rifle. I have it all apart and am tweaking everything over the next few weeks.
As of now, my cylinder, cylinder head, piston, and spring guide are lathered in grease. Here is what I want to do:
1. I want to wipe down every part, removing the grease, cleaning up the cylinder parts.
2. Next, I want to apply some new grease to the cylinder. Should I also apply some grease to the piston as well?
And what grease should I buy? Here is what I have been looking at, but what puzzles me is the fact that the grease is in the aeg section. Would this work fine with the parts I mentioned?

I feel like a noob asking all this, but I have only ever used silicon oil on my cylinder, and grease just found its way onto my other laylax cylinder parts.
Could use some help
