There have been some pretty exhaustive tests done by members of this forum and most agree that Clenzoil (available at some gunshops, gunshows and on the internet) is the best. I use it and it is light, penetrates, does no harm, and has been around for a long time. I also use RIG which is a heavy coating that I wipe down after it has been applied. I have been using this for over 25 years, no rust or damage ever. I would not recommend putting any petroleum product on the grips or the holster, though. I have heard that there are some gun oils that will dissolve the cold bluing solution but that is not all bad.
