I've looked into the invoices, and some users were accidentally charged double for shipping. If you receive another invoice, please pay the new one. If you have already paid the higher one, send us an email at supposed@goosekbd.com and we will refund you the difference. We apologize for the issues.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Corrected invoices should have been sent out.

Got an update:

UPDATE 12/21/17: Lube as arrived later than expected. We will take photos and begin on packaging the lube, but shipping it out will be delayed until it is all packed.

We apologize for the delays.

Greets all!

We did not expect this to be approved so late, however, it could be a good thing. We've extended the deadline since we have been working on getting an EU proxy for EU buyers. I will update the original post to reflect the changes, however, the deadline is now extended since this post was approved late.

-Goose Keyboards.

Will it be coming from the factory pre-packaged in the two sizes offered?
Curious if there will be any manufacturer identification to show that said lube actually came from ro59inc?

The factory only sells in 5 gallon or 55 gallon sizes. We will be separating it and selling it, however, we can upload photos of the 5 gallon drum when we receive it.

Would love to see some pictures of what the 5 gallon drum label looks like, as well as any packaging pictures you can do  :thumb:

Go to a craft store. Buy one of the smallest water color brushes they have. Buy a nicer one that doesn't fall apart. It's annoying picking the bristles off the switch.

Ahh sorry. I don't have an update. We're still working on shipping stuff out, but it's been slow because school. Hopefully we can get it shipped out soon. Also, important note. You HAVE to mix the lube with water. The ratio is really up to you, but if you don't mix it, you're not going to get that great results.

Mix with water?  Is there some kinda documentation anywhere to show what the best mixture is?

We'll look into organizing tracking numbers for everyone, but I don't want to speculate too much into the future.

For mixing, start of with equal parts water and lube and then play with ratios. That's the easiest way.

I read about how RO-59 needs to be cured overnight. Does that mean we'll need to lube the switches and then let them sit out for the lube to dry before putting the switches back together?

you don't 'have to' but its highly recommended. Either that or take a hairdryer to them for 1/2 an hour.

I believe they use the RO-59tm88G formula, but I could be wrong.

So is mixing the water something that the manufacturer recommends, or is it something that you discovered works best?

It must be pretty thick if your suggesting to dilute it with water?

The Lube:Water ratio for this is 1:1

Also, to apply RO-59tmKT:
1. Clean target surface
2. Brush on RO-59 so surface is covered, but not so much that puddles are created
3. Air dry until liquid evaporates. Paperwork says 30 minutes, but can take longer depending on the humidity
4. At this point, there are two options:
    a. Heat at 65C for 3 minutes (for example, using a hairdryer)
    b. Air dry for another 1-2x the time it took for the liquid to evaporate

NOTE: RO-59 should be stored out of direct sunlight, and should be shaken once a week to prevent sedimentation. Unapplied lube expires 1 year from manufacture.
