I put some oil on the top few inches of the cylinder. Set my ring position and put some oil on my installer. Clamp it on the piston and put some oil on the exposed skirt. As you install the piston the oil control ring will wipe a fair amount off. I have seen people dunk the pistons in oil then put them in. Upon fire up I believe you will leave burnt oil deposits in your ring lands doing that.
