    Hi Steve ,

    Could you tell me where to get a tube of the silicone grease?
    I have tried to find it in the stores close to me and so far all
    I have been able to find is automotive bulb grease in a very
    small tube .

      Hi Darle -
      You can get high quality silicone grease from your local scuba diving shop and it is fairly inexpensive. It is used for lubing the O-rings in regulators.

        Hi Tim ,

        Thank you for the info . I am not to sure that I will find a
        scuba shop around here ?? I will have to check that out .
        I live in SE Indiana and the only water close by that a
        person might go scuba diving in is the Ohio river . Knowing
        the condition of the water , I believe a mini sub would be
        safer ........
        I know that I won't be running any RC sub of mine in it .

          That's the beauty of the 'net Darle, on-line shopping. Just do a Google search on scuba shops or "silicone grease".

            You can get silicone grease at the hardware store, they use it for lubing faucets.

              the first hardware store that I have ever known to close
              every day at 5PM and open at 10AM , bankers hours ??
              This place has to be the TwilightZone ........
