More economical and just as good (or even better?) is generic air tool oil,
available at most hardware stores that sell air tools...Like Home Despot or
ACE Hardware or your local (if it has not gone belly-up) lumberyard.  I use
it for my bikes and as a general  all-purpose light lubricating oil. It has
something in it to lubricate your air tools without gumming them
up... TriFlow is about $4/oz or something and you can get a pint of air tool
oil for the same...Comes in a squeeze bottle, too.
  The 'anti-gum'-ness is real.  I experimented with normal oil on my bike
chain as opposed to both Triflow and air tool oil.  Regular oil leaves my
chain sticky and dirty after a day or two, while the others do get somewhat
dirty, they are not sticky at all.  It works in my nail guns too.
