:confused:Can anyone tell me where I can buy the dry graphite spray that adheres? They sell it at gokart supply, but it is 25$:cussing:. I am trying to save pennies here LOL. I use it for my driver pulley. The graphite power does not work :banghead:

Most auto parts stores should have it, may be cheaper but probably not much.

You would think so....
I checked four hardware stores and three auto stores, none which had it.
I just found some on amazon made by pb blaster looks to be what i need and only 5$

I bought a can at Home Depot. And also found a can at an auto parts store too.

Pretty sure it's called dry lube.

I get the drylube with moly and graphite at Napa, was just there today and it is almost 15.00 for a 14oz can. I buy mine through a company out of St Louis Continental Chemicle by the case of 12 16oz cans for about 12.00 per can. I use this on my chain and also lube the cables with it.

So Slick. You use this on your drive pulley instead of grease.

Ha, I forgot there was a napa by my house. They have a graphite based dry lube spray made by 3 in 1.
Hope this will work and is what I need.
