TFL50 on knuckles?

[William R. Monroe]

Holly,

I see nothing wrong with spraying TFL50 Dry (or McLube 444A, or applying Teflon powder) on knuckles.  If they are already mounted to the action bracket, I flip up the hammers, lay newspaper down on either side of the knuckles and put newspaper behind the shanks to avoid any overspray issues.  Works well.

  So I'm doing a knuckle replacement job, and I swear it looks like someone actually sprayed the knuckles with TFL50. There's a white film on the shanks and tops of the whippens that looks like it could only have been sprayed on. Teflon powder, I've heard of, yes - but using a spray? Is this a common or reasonable practice? Just curious...
