Finish Line's Stanchion Lube drastically reduces suspension fork "stiction" to improve your fork's freedom of movement. Stanchion Lube is pure fluoropolymer oil — so slippery it even improves the surface slip of Teflon-coated surfaces! Plus, it conditions and protects seals and o-rings to help your fork work better longer.

Strengths:
Very slippery, flows down the stanchion tubes and down into the seals past the plastic cups on top of the forks.
Does not leave a greasy mess to attract dirt.
Weaknesses:
Expensive, I can see using this a lot to keep the seals conditioned.
Similar Products Used:
None so far
Bike Setup:
2009 Specialized Rockhopper Pro
Kenda Nevegal STICK-E 26x2.1, Shimano PD-M324 Clipless/Clip Pedals, Cateye Micro Wireless computer.
That is it for now...
Bottom Line:
I was going to get the Judy Butter when my LBS recommended this over the Judy Butter.
A friend used the butter stuff and it attracted all kinds of dirt.
This Stanchion Fluoro Oil is very slippery and leaves hardly a film which can be wiped off afterwards, as it gets down into the seals when you compress your forks.
