I want to purchase some tri-flow, but I have a question. Which one do I buy? There is tri-flow with PTFE or tri-flow with teflon (isn't that the same thing as PTFE?). I'm assuming I don't want the one for bicycles. Thx in advance for the help.

Maybe just older labeling... It is sold in bike shops, auto parts etc

Some Ace Hardware stores have Tri-flow - I get it at the bike shop near where I live - besides then I get to look at bikes - I used to take them apart, too... There are different kinds of Tri-Flow. You want the kind sew-classic sells. http://shop.sew-classic.com/Tri-Flow...il-TF21010.htm

My local bike shop ( Next door to the LSMS ) sells the same T-F as Sew Classic.

Yes, must be different packaging: One of the things I remember clearly from year 11 chemistry (30 years ago) is that teflon is the commercial name for PTFE (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene).
