Davies Match Trigger

#1 Postby sullivan » Tue Dec 19, 2023 11:08 am

My Davies Match Trigger is supposed to be lubricated with mineral turps. Perhaps unfortunately, I wandered on to a site where the recommendation for other Davies triggers, was "Break Free".
What does the Forum think? Stick to turps? "Break Free", according to google has a seemingly vague description that leaves me confused. Is there a specific brand that the Forum likes, if it is a better lube?

The instructions say to clean with turps, not lubricate.
Lubricate with break Free. If you cannot obtain break free then use WD 40 or similar, but use sparingly.
Lubricate sear faces with graphite grease or a good quality HP grease.Again use sparingly.
