I would spend a few $ and get a bottle of air tool oil, but you could
ask Starrett what they think.

Dunno about the Starrett oil, but Paslode Air Tool Oil is $3 and change for
a good sized bottle here in Canada ... hardly seems worth risking a pricey
tool for a few bucks.

Not all nailers use oil. For mine that do, air tool oil is cheap
enough. The Starrett oil will probably be OK, but I'd probably use it
for other oiling tasks.

Who knows? Why not get some oil made for air tools. It is cheap.

Be sure that your brand of nailer requires oil.
We use the Senco brad nailer that does not.
