Peter,
The product that you want to use is Dow Corning Silicon Fluid 200. A dealer
recommended it to me and it is in my opinion far superior to any
alternative. I have been using it successfully for several years. It is
inert organically, non-oily and really brings out your shells' colors
nicely.
You can find a pdf. file at http://www.neelyindustries.com/pdf/200med.pdf
which describes the product in question. 1000cs is one liter
(approximately one gallon). You can order w/ credit card from Neely
Industries in Texas at 800-242-1483.
You will love this stuff.
Regards,
Scott

Leslie,
Thanks. I've looked at some of the messages and still have not decided
what would be best. I think I'd use silicone if it was easily available. I
went to a couple hardware stores and asked for liquid or spray silicone
and just got funny stares...at least I could find WD-40. Maybe I should
try more stores? Could those out there using silicone please tell me
some of the brand names that they are using and maybe I can get them
here in Canada?
Thanks again,
Peter Egerton
