Title: Anyone prefer it without lube?
Post by: gameaholic on Tue, 22 October 2013, 15:22:39: I have a KMAC now with lubed clears and I find that I prefer my non-lubed clears on my filco for the better tactile response. I think that I might like lube on a linear switch though so I plan on having my vintage blacks with 55g springs lubed.

Insert KY lube joke here.

Where do I get the right lube? For my keyboard.

this is very true... though I think it comes down not to the "absence" of lube.. rather it is the "viscosity" that determines the overall experience. (http://www.cute-factor.com/images/smilies/onion_custom/th_aji.gif)
