[IC] 3cc of keyboard lube
« on: Sun, 10 June 2012, 17:58:11 »
I was wondering if there is any interest in small syringes of lubricant. I would be shipping 3cc syringes of lube in a bubble mailer (just using stamps at cost, so no insurance) to your door for $5-$6. This would be for CONUS only as I'm not sure about international shipping of lubricant. The lube in the syringe would be Super Lube "Synthetic Grease with Syncolon (same at Teflon but you don't have to pay royalties to DuPont )", it's the same lube that WASD uses for his keyboards.


I could get 18 gauge needles, but I'm not sure if I could ship them. I'll be contacting the postal service in regards to shipping needles

I know, but when would you ever need 3oz of lube for your keyboard?

I would definitely like a tube. The syringe is the way to go, I would pay a couple of dollars more if the needle had to ship separately.

I have a 1/2 cc tube from Elite that is far from empty, but 3 cc would last for years.

Thank you!

I use Krytox GPL-205 as my lube of choice. But it ain't cheap. 3cc doesn't last long when you lube the inside of the switches.

Now... Who here remembers when I put EK Mechlube inside of a switch?... And the aftermath of that lapse of judgement...

  • Topre, or not Topre? That is the question.

Sure.
Would that help some scratchy Topre switches?

Wasn't there a thread about some lubes causing topre domes to stiffen?

Edit: I think it was just some comments, and it was time that was the consensus.

Any more interest? I was expecting a bit more. But I can scale down what I had in mind to something that fits this smallish amount of interest


Still looking into shipping needles
