Bottom line, what I have used most often over the years is detailed in this PDF file of the Dow datasheet for it's silicone greases: dow_silicone_grease.pdf

Tomas: This link to the Dow Chemical datasheet is invaluable information for any flashlight owner who has flashlights that use O-Rings.Thank you for posting.

Everyone who is interested in maintaining there flashlight O-Rings should read the Dow link.

Next time I go to Ap Liu Street, I certainly have to buy some silicone grease.

Re: Silicone spray from WD-40 safe for flashlights

A little late for this, but I just noticed the otherday when unpacking, that I've been using the WD-40 (or whatever it's called) silicon spray. It not a good lube for most things. Kel is the best brand I've found for spray silicone. Unfortunately, I can't find anyplace locally that carries it, and it's a bit pricey when ordered from ayoob.com
