    window tracks, weather stripping: i use cotton buds soaked in silicone oil. silicone spray just shoots all over the place

    for metal-on-metal lubrication silicone is a very poor choice. but for plastic gears it is acceptable for light-duty applications

    flashlight o-rings i use SuperLube grease, again the silicone spray shoots all over. and silicone lube shouldn't be used on silicone o-rings

    guns i use ATF from a needle applicator

    silicone would be abysmal on bicycle chain, so i use gear oil + kerosene

    so that's why i haven't found a good use for silicone spray, coz there are better products out there
