After cleaning including a running a pipe cleaner through the bolt head, I'll apply a light coat of Break-Free on all the internals, let it set a few minutes then wipe off all the excess with a rag. After assembly but before installing the bolt I'll clean the lug recesses-abutments, the apply a thin coat of bolt or lithium grease on the high friction areas, the back of the lugs, the cocking ramp and PE cam.

The recesses-abutments, lugs, cocking ramp, and PE cam are cleaned and re-greased every time I clean a barrel and chamber.
