I wouldn't.
Air Tool oil contains a lot of corrosion inhibitors to keep the moisture from "shop air" from rusting the internals.
Basically, there's stuff in air tool oil that doesn't need to be in your paintball gun and from experience, it seems like it softens the urethane o-rings that you find in Mags. Also, it's too viscous.
I like KC Trouble Free oil, but lately I've been using 100% silicone oil in 10wt., which is used for RC car shocks. You can find it at any hobby store.Comment

That idea about the silicone oil from the r/c car shocks was a great idea. I'll have to try that. One rule of thumb i have always used was not to put any petroleum based oils b/c it swells orings causing then to break.Comment

20wt. should be fine.
I use 10wt AE brand Silicone oil. I like to push things to the edge in terms of performance and I think 10wt slows things down less and blows through the valve more. Since I oil before every use, 20wt. seems a bit too heavy. That's just my personal preference.Comment
