I know this seems like a silly question but I was wondering if I can use OTiS 085 Ultra Bore gun cleaner to lubricate my TPX?
 
It says it lubricates, and I know it;s basically the same stuff as pb gun oil but this stuff removes gun powder and I did not know it that would cause harm to my TPX.
 
I was also wondering where I oil the TPX at? Do i have to open it up and lube all the interals basically or like a pb gun just oil it down the CO2 shaft and that will work?

Check to see if is a petroleum based lubricant, if it is, then, No.  It will rot your O rings.

It says it contains petroleum distillates, which means it contains petroleum then?
 
I don't know what distillate means, I thought it kept it free of something. but idk I'm too excited to think straight..
