Grease for the warthog #588
Hi, I'm currently waiting for my new O-ring to arrive and I'm wondering if I should grease it up for the new O-ring, and if so, what type of grease I should get.

Ideally, I would be able to go into a shop and buy the grease, as I do not want to wait even longer for it to arrive.

Thanks!

Ask eightbit, i know he, and or someone else had a spray to use on joysticks that works amazing, i cant remember the name of it. its a non graphite lubricant that works really well... maybe it was Alpha.

There used to be a thread on the ED forums about specifically what type of grease to use, I'm sure it's still there somewhere..

For anyone in the future in my situation : forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=80787

I didnt feel like waiting for something I ordered so I went to Canadian tire and took a silicon based spray...surely its too light and will have to re-lube once in a while, but it seems very good compared to default warthog.
Will most likely order a real grease soon.
