I was able to buy a bottle at my LHS. It's okay for blackening, but it will rub off. That's an advantage if you want to be able to reverse blackening your running gear, and it comes off completely with alcohol, since it's just graphite suspended in an alcohol base. I haven't found it to be conductive at all, and someone else that tested it (I think it was Model Railroader) found the same result. It's made as a lube, and it's great on that count, since it lets the graphite flow in to parts without blowing it everywhere.
