Default Tungsten Disulfide engine pre breakin Lubricant

Tungsten Disulfide (WS2) is one of the most lubricous materials known to science. With Coefficient of Friction at 0.03, it offers excellent dry lubricity unmatched to any other substance. It can also be used in high temperature and high pressure applications. It offers temperature resistance from -450 deg F (-270 deg C) to 1200 deg F (650 deg C) in normal atmosphere and from -305 deg F (-188 deg C) to 2400 deg F (1316 deg C) in Vacuum. Load bearing property of coated film is extremely high at 300,000 psi.

Does a Nitro engine have the tolerences for a .4 to .5 micron layer? Has anyone had any experience with using it? It works well on bearings and other moving parts. Has anyone had any eperience using WS2 on Nitro engines?
