Best lube for GBB pistols?

SO currently I have some Firepower silicon oil and it works just fine, but my only problem with it is its way too runny.
recommendations on some good NON-RUNNY silicon oils for oiling up the slides of GBB pistols?

Silicone is fine for the o-ring seals. I use SuperLube on the slides. SuperLube is synthetic and won't any plastic or seals if it comes in contact with.

For metal parts only, apply a blow dryer after though to heat up the lube.

I recommend 25-30 wt silicon oil.

Go to your local RC shop and search for "Silicon shock oil"

You can go to canadian tire and pick up some permatex ultra slick from the auto section. Cost 5 bucks and lasts a very long time.

Oil is no good for lubricating metal-on-metal parts (like the slide). Grease is what you need.

I also recommend SuperLube.

Most gun oils will attack airsoft materials.

I have a container of white lithium grease mixed with graphite that I use on all metal to metal contact.
