Title: Lubed my spacebar and now it is sticking
Post by: mithian on Fri, 21 February 2020, 16:39:32

Hello,
Today I lubed my keyboard and everything was great until I started typing. I only lubed the stabs btw and I did it without soldering and I used dielectric grease. When I started to type the spacebar started to stick sometimes. Will this eventually stop as the grease gets more worn in? Is there anything I can do rn to help hit>

You may have put too much, because it started to stick. Make sure the stabilizers are in the correct positions and not bent at all.

Yeah you might've put a bit too much and it run to the bottom of the stabilizer.
