The website pinewoodderbyphysics.com has a liquid lube that they call Super Z-Oil, here is the link: www.pinewoodderbyphysics.com/superZ-oil.shtml
They claim that this oil is better than Krytox at higher wheel RPMs. The details are discussed in lecture 13 on their site at the following link:

Has anyone ever used this oil? I am new to liquid lubes and am wondering if this oil would offer an advantage over Krytox. This lecture also claims that the friction was reduced when combined with their dry graphite, but I do not plan to combine the two. I am aware that there is another thread related to this lube, but it only discussed the combinations of the wet and dry lubes.
On a related note, I've read that using Jig-a-loo lube on axles prior to applying Krytox provides a benefit, it this true?
Thank you!
