chapter.

3. Use only oil designed for paintball guns in your

Rebel.

The primary function of oil in regards to your paint gun

is to reduce friction in the moving internal

components. This will minimize the wear of the parts

while increasing the speed and smoothness of the

operation. If you are going to use an oil that is not

specifically designed for paint guns there are some

important issues to look at. First, the temperature of

liquid C02 is somewhere in the -50 to -60 degree

Celsius range. You'll need an oil that does not

thicken in that temperature range. Motor oil for

instance, is designed to work in hot temperatures and

will thicken in the cold. This will cause the internal

parts of your gun to slow down or even cease. The

"thickness" of an oil is called viscosity. Some oils

tend to have viscosity break-down in extreme hot or

cold temperatures--some do not. There is actually a

viscosity index which will tell you how "durable" an oil

is in hot or cold temperature. Paint gun oil should have a

viscosity index of 300+ and should be able to handle

temperatures of -60 to +60 degrees C.

and top off with 300

many more smaller

advantages to using
