About 8 years ago I lubed a Topre clone board (CM Novatouch) with “Finish Line Extreme Fluoro PFPAE” which was recommended at the time. Now years later it has pretty much all turned to dust and isn’t really lubricating anything anymore. I suspect this happened maybe 5 years from when I applied it because it started feeling not so great and I put it away to use another board.
Now I’ve finally gotten the time to work on it and I’ve cleaned off all the old crusty stuff and I’m going to replace it with a combination of 205g0 for the slider points of contact and 3204 for the stabilizer bars. (EDIT: might just try the 3204 on everything or find some actual grease for the bars, not sure yet)
I’m wondering if anyone has any long term experience with either of these and if I might be able to expect a slightly longer life from them than what I had previously?
Huh, I didn’t realize that about CM and Topre. I like it a lot honestly which is why I put all this time into cleaning all the old stuff off. Thanks for the input!
I’ve always wanted one myself. I remember seeing one at Micro Center many years ago and I kick myself for not buying it.
