would liquid graphite work at all? also have a spray lube with teflon at the jobsite, any opinions on these?

Never heard of liquid graphite. Maybe one of the vets has used it and can say from first hand knowledge whether it works. If not, might be worth a try. What have you got to lose? In my experience Teflon does not work well -- to thick. Just my opinion.

Can't remember if it said Liquified graphite or Graphited liquid. Works great in locks, not so great on plastic wheels. In fact if you soak a wheel in it for a couple days it will make the surface soft and gummy. I have tried at least a half dozen sprays that contain teflon, one even promised a .01 static coefficient of friction. May work great as mold release agents but sure don't work for PWD lube. If you have to use dry you can't beat Hob-E-Lube or Hodges GM lube. Although Max-V has stated in tests that Tube-O-Lube is better I have not tested, although I did buy a tube. If you can use liquid then get some Krytox 100 or SB10 (same as Krytox 103). Good Luck. Bob

Looking for the magic method of applying Krytox. It sounds like people are having trouble getting the performance gains that other people are seeing.
Is someone willing to divulge their secrets?
How about the wheel and axle prep.?
Can you switch from graphite to Krytox?
or the other way around?
I think I remember seeing a post from Buckeye on the application. I believe he used air to blow off the excess.
We're still using the other stuff.
