Title: Does this Lube works for Stabilizers?
Post by: Pavilions on Mon, 16 July 2018, 12:01:04

I bought this lube from my local market, but I don't know if it will work with keyboard stabilizers or not? Is it suitable?

I wouldn't use it as a lube, but I recommend using it between parts of certain materials, like steel screws on aluminum parts.

I frankly am not sure if it'll be suitable. You'd only know if you tried. I recommend:

SuperLube 82340 (http://a.co/aANoDvG)

Teflon lube (instead of Superlube) (http://a.co/geQ80m8)

Dielectric Grease for your stabilizer wires (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000AL8VD2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_rfntBbYBYGKZ4)
