While grocery shopping in Wally World in found some Liquid Wrench brand of spray dry lube. Big can and much cheaper than the
Remington stuff that I have used for years and works great. After cleaning a Kimber (ss model) I hosed it down in the usual
places with the new spray. It went on wet like the other stuff and then dried. All is well and I forgot about it. Last weekend it
was nice outside and I decided to shoot some. After about 2 mags worth of ammo, the mag didn't eject and I had to pull it out
of the frame. The slide also seemed a little sticky and failed to close without a bump from my fist. It seems the LW brand dry
lube gets gooey / sticky when exposed to some bang - bang ! I wiped it out some and added a spray of ONE LUBE and again it
functioned correctly.

Just an FYI and wondering if anyone else had problems with non-gun type lubricants.

You shouldn't use WD40 for the same reason.

I've used Dupont Teflon Dry Lube spray on the inside of my magazines after cleaning for several years without problem. It doesn't get gummy or sticky and does not attract or hold dirt, even if I drop a mag in the dirt at the range.

Maybe you should try another brand........

It might not be a good one, but WD40 is advertised as a lubricant. http://www.wd40.com/Brands/wd40_product_info.html

I can also confirm that if you squirt some on your Dad's 1940 buick accidentally, it restores 50 year old faded paint to shine like a diamond.

While we're making recommendations, I'll put in my suggestion.

I have treated my pistols with Microlon Gun Juice, and have been very happy with the results. In addition to being a dry lubricant, it also fills the pores of the metal to the effect that my guns are now insanely easy to clean. Cleaning time on my PA-63 is down to about 1/4 of what it used to be. All that is required now is to strip and spray down with GunScrubber, run 2 patches of CLP through the barrel, and it's done! What used to take many patches and detail work to get clean (it is a straight-blowback design, so inherently dirty) has become a very quick spray and a couple of wipes. I have noticed that the action is significantly smoother on this gun as well. It's amazing stuff. On top of that, the stuff is permanent. It takes a single treatment session, and it's there forever.

A 1oz bottle costs $7 at McBrides here locally, and is enough to treat 2-3 pistols or one rifle. It's a great investment, IMO.

There is a thread about this stuff, which includes my correspondence with a Microlon representative:

Thoughts about "Microlon Gun Juice" from users?

I've also heard good things about Gunzilla. It is apparently working wonders for our soldiers over in Iraq and Afghanistan. There is a brief discussion in this thread:

How do you guys clean your pistols before putting them away
