I used for about Binak for a while.  It was OK.  I now only use Silicon oil. 
 
By my way of thinking, the oil goes somewhere.  
And the only place it could go is down the slide.  
I don't want anything on my slide that shouldn't be on my slide.  
That rules out most thin oils.  What's left is Binak and Silicone.

And my rotor is so smooth that I disabled half of the return spring.
