Would suggest that what is being discussed here is not lube, but an exercise in fouling management. Common practice during ML competition. In that venue the use of a DAMP patch (both sides) followed by a dry patch (both sides) is normal between shots. It is not a substitute for proper cleaning.

Have been using the cleaner from Tracks for a long time. Is good stuff. One can do as well with ordinary Windex and water; about 20:80.

Caution for the common good, a wet patch can lead to hangfires etc. Few wee squirts or 3 on a short stack of patches in a small container overnight will get the job done.
