Title: Keyboard lubing
Post by: Jin on Wed, 11 May 2016, 19:34:17

Hi i got some information from korean keyboard community "KBDLAB"

Many people use krytox or other lube for lubing switch slider but many korean keyboard maker said "IOAID" and "Wakos 105" oil is very good at lubing switch slider

Here is IOAID product page : http://www.tafco.co.jp/RO-59_260ml.html  and Model name is RO-59tmKT (260ml) 

I m not japenese so.. cannot translate this thing , but LZ and other maker said this is really good for lubing switches....

Second one is Wakos 105

You can buy this one japan amazon : http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E5%92%8C%E5%85%89%E3%82%B1%E3%83%9F%E3%82%AB%E3%83%AB-WAKOS-FSO-%E3%83%95%E3%83%83%E3%82%BD%E3%82%AA%E3%82%A4%E3%83%AB105/dp/B001EFKWLC/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1463013104&sr=8-2&keywords=wakos+105

I m not sure this product are possible to ship to world wide ??


This lube will be other option beside krytox...

Thankyou
