I recently bought a Mihec mould, (270-SAA-45) and got the little bottle of mould lube with it.
I also gained possesion of a Lipsey's 45 Flattop convertible 4 5/8".
Made some Ben's Red and had minimal leading.
I read a lot of the posts about using mould lube to keep lead from smearing on the mould between the sprue and the block.
I put a small amount of mould lube on a Q tip and applied it to the lands and grooves right in front of the forcing cone after cleaning and went to the range. I do believe that the small amount of leading has become non existent.
Makes sense.
