pot metal will oxidize no matter what you do to it. hell you could leave it soaking in silicone oil and it'll still oxidize. dont ever try stripping a pot metal part and polishing it, you can watch it oxidized within minutes.

if the area i want to lube doesnt have any silicone rubber near it, i use light weight machine oil. you dont want anything petroleum based to come in contact with any o-rings, seals or hop-up sleeves.
