I just got my angel 2 days ago and I have a tournament tomorrow. The gun looks like it needs to be cleaned. I don't have any of the Love Juice yet though. Would like Hoppes9 work on it? Or what else could I use?

Don't know what Hoppes9 has in it? If it has petroleum products in it, don't use it.

In a jam I have used 10wt silicone shock oil for my radio controlled buggies. If memory serves Hoppes is a firearm oil but I could be mistaken. If it is for firearms then do not use it.

IMO the only lube you should use is the love juice, it is specifically designed to work with the o-rings in your marker. I would not use any other kind of lube. Two drops in the macro line per case shot. Also dont forget for every 5-10 cases lube that ram (I use shocker lube on the ram) but dont over do it or it will come up into the bolt (we know you dont wanna lube these bolts) and may even get pushed constantly into your eyes. Hope this helps...

I'm getting some love juice so thats not a problem anymore. I read the manual about removing the ram (this is for future reference) so I could clean it. What do you guys use to remove ur ram?

i use the angel toolkit ram removal tool...you can get the kit for about $50. Either that or you can use circlip pliers.

Just about any large hardware store will have them. Lowes comes to mind.

i thought all of the speeds came with love juice....mine did.Yes it is supposed to come with some but sometimes the place you but from removed the bottle and forgot to include it when you bought it. Mine for example came without love juice or a barrel condom. I guess that's a trade off for the price I paid.
