Hi Jim,

I believe you'll find that any O2 compatible lube is not a silicone and 
surely not silicon.

Take care and safe diving,       Scott

nothing else is needed. "02 Kit" is nothing but a scam. I have been using no
special prep regs on 100% 02 for the last 5 years, as have many of my dive
buddies. No explosions or even failures.

Sounds like shop #4 would be the one to deal with.
