One of the local HBS swears by KY when I rank asking the same question...haven't used it myself though.
Thought he was joking at first, he was serious though. Said any water based lube should be good to use.

realistically speaking, is there any reason that you couldn't use the tiniest amount of vegetable oil? is it only because it might affect the beer's head?

I bought a tube of Keg Lube in 2003 and I think it will be on this earth long after I've gone!

Cheers,

On some bad advise I tried this on an air stapler "was the done thing", I was told. Sorry to report it stuffed the O rings in six months and the stapler was U/S.

KY might be the go T/L as I was thinking dual purpose :)
