You can buy exactly the same stuff at 7/11 or Tesco right beside the condoms... It's called KY (lube) and made by Durex. Its a lubricant that does not effect rubber.. Can I ask what it is going to be used for...?

I was already waiting for someone to advise that. To my knowledge it's not the same stuff as that stuff is glycerine based

I use it for for O- Rings in water tanks / plumbing.

It's also generally used by dive shops, that is why the online find at a dive shop in Krabi

Can't edit my post anymore, but here a thread on TV about silicone grease.

And there no recommendation for KY ;)

You are totally correct. KY Jell is Glycerine based.... It will not affect "O rings" or rubber. Have been involved in the commercial dive scene and have used KY Jell as a lubricant and also a sealer for small air leaks. Many times also as a joke... hope you find what your after.

Thanks. Already found it at that dive shop in Krabi, but as said prefer to buy from somewhere local, but not that many dive shops in Buriram I think ;) or ..... ?
