I have a titan that is slowly leaking out the front, how can i fix it?

[Nonsense Man]

Spray some silicone lube on the valve.

[Rogue Warrior]

Or if you don't have that use some veggie oil.

[Nonsense Man]

No do not use vegetable oil. It can supremely fuck up your seal and any other rubber. Only use a lubricant with a silicone base.

YES, and don't use WD40 for anything... Try that and let us know.

ok, as soon as I can get some silicone lube Ill test it and post how it worked

[raw shrimp]

Goop the shit out of it!!!

Did you even understand the question?
I had similiar problem with a Secret shot 2. I sprayed silicone lube in the plunger tube, and pumped it a few times. Then I let it sit. It worked for a while, but then I tried too spray too much in the plunger tube and now in won't pump right. So just be careful of how much you spray in there.

Ok, I have this " Heavy Duty" Silicone Spray at Wal*Mart(CRC brand) and I found out that the propellant is Acetone based. Don't get it, fucked up my nitefinder. Can anyone recommend a good silicone Spray?(I saw CS type, but I can't find it.) Most Silicone sprays I find are petroleum based silicone sprays. Is this fine?

Supposedly, petroleum is bad (its in Vaseline), so I'm not sure which one to get... The sprays usually are very thin, and don't do much for me besides get gunk out of the plungers...

When my titan and 2k were leaking about the front, I cut the tank in half, and goop it back together. Now they both hold pressure fine. There was just a thread on this, search.

So, what do you recommend keef? What do you use?

EDIT: Will airsoft gun Silicone Lube work?

Most silicone sprays have some sort of hydrocarbon-based propellant because of their volatility (i.e. they evaporate almost instantly). Unless you're doing something to prevent the propellant from evaporating quickly, like spraying a massive amount into the plunger tube at point-blank range, it shouldn't remain in contact long enough to do any damage.
