I have used silicone impregnated cloths "forever" to wipe down my firearms. Here's my question: I just bought some Amsoil silicone spray, with my thoughts to use it on (steel) Stihl chainsaw bars to keep them shiny and rust free. BUT -- the label on can indicates NOT for use on metal. I'm dumbfounded, and after too many hours Googling to get an answer why -- including the Amsoil site -- I got no answers/reasons.
I reckoned with all the smarter-than-genius folks on this site...(I'm being serious!)...one might know the reason(s) why their label is as such; and, what might happen to metal if I spray it on?
Thanks much!
