Joined: June 2004 Posts: 580 Location: NW NJ | I use Dunlop strap locks on all my O's to prevent disaster. Just one question - they have started to get a little hard to put in and pull out, so they obviously need some lubrication. What do you guys and gals use? | ||

Cruster, the moment has passed. Any after the fact comments will be ignored. | ||

Joined: June 2004 Posts: 580 Location: NW NJ | Yup, I was ready for the onslaught after I read the title and then proofed the text - I just couldn't think of any other way to describe the problem ... thanks for your mercy Cruster! And for the reply Stephen. | ||

"Lubrication is very, very important as you age!" In either case I would consider anything that is non-staining, neutral PH and readily accessable. | ||
