Does anyone know of a shop that will reapply the dry film lubricant found inside of buffer tubes and upper receivers?

Thanks!

I don't but I believe the film they use is this. Sandstrom 28A. You can spray it yourself, looks like you have to heat it just a little bit to help it cure. I may try it at some point.

Kind of spendy at 40+ bucks a can though.

Me thinks the Sandstrom gets used a lot in at least military aviation if you know anyone.

I found a shop that uses Sandstrom LC 300. It’s the heavier duty version of 28A. Gonna go that route. Thanks for the help guys.
