The best silicone lubricant I could find was KEL brand, it says "PURE SILICONE". It maybe 100% silicone or it may not. If it isn't, or if anyone knows of better silicone and where to get it, tell me.

Go to any hobby shop that stocks R/C Cars, and ask them for silicone shock oil. It's used to fill the suspension on the cars, and is also 100% silicone, perfect for airsoft guns. It usually comes in a small bottle and should only cost a few bucks.

I thought it had to be spray silicone. Is the stuff I have ok?

It doesn't really mater if it's in a spray bottle or not, as long as it's 100% silicone. The spray stuff might be easier to just blast into magazine wells, feed tubes, etc., but I don't mind just dripping the stuff in there from the bottle. Since you asked specifically about using it for GBB guns, it seems a spray bottle might not be the best; for the small areas you need to lube, and the small amounts of lube needed, I think it would be better to use an eyedropper or even your fingertip to apply, as opposed to a huge blast that goes everywhere. I've never heard of the brand you have, and you asked where to get 100% silicone, so I told you the easiest place I know to get the stuff. If yours works fine, then by all means use it!
