use no ox. noalox is for aluminum.
Olive oil will attract a lot more gunk and make the threads even more prone to seizing. You should use something like Noalox.
It's ok in that it's nontoxic, but I'm not sure if it's the best lubricant for your locking ring.
Oh really??? No ox.
Ok thank you. Ill read up on it. Got a couple different mods. 2 are stainless but one is gold plated. No ox the same for that? Everything bar aluminium?
(Sos, just couldn't bare to leave out the 'I'. Lol)
Hey Z!!!!!
I don't know which one of those you picked, but did you try checking an auto parts store? I've bought the dielectric grease at the local DIY auto parts places, but I don't know which ones you might have in the UK. I got my No-OX from Provape, so I paid a bit more for it since it was for the Provari and not for my car project.
Ah cool. So my gentle olive oil will be ok for a little while.
I hope your right instead of retired and this oily smirk isn't rubbed off my face when these threads seize for good.

If you have a electric shaver it should come with a small bottle of oil, it will work also. Just but a light coat on with a q-tip.

On that thread, they recommend Permatex Dielectric Grease and possibly Permatex tune-up grease. First priority should be a having a used toothbrush on hand and making sure everything is and stays really clean. Or so I understand.
