DISCLAIMER: I've never tried this...
I'd definitely avoid any kind of liquid lubricant.
I'd guess that a dry graphite lubricant would work - the kind of thing that's
recommended for lubricating door locks that comes with a nice thin nozzle to
direct it where you need it.
Kinda messy though - you might get that black stuff leaking out everywhere for
months afterwards!

| Greetings, Any suggestions to safely yet effectively lubricate technic turntables? I have four which are somewhat stiff and require a fair amount of torque to rotate. Thanks in advance! Cheers, Carl Jagt (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
