Damping fluid/grease for Mayware Unipivot?


Does anyone know something about the damping fluid used in the Mayware unipivots? Ideally I would like to know the viscosity if anyone has a full specification for one of the arms.

I have had a google and found a recommendation to use olive oil (usually a fairly thin viscous liquid) but the users manual refers to a grease (usually a much more viscous gunge). Hmmm. Can anyone who has actually seen the damping fluid supplied with one of the arms describe its thickness/viscousity relative to olive oil or grease.

Many thanks.

Thanks for the useful pointer Stefanl but it studies a turntables performance in a manner with which I am familiar. In the 70s discussing turntable performance in the press on this sort of basis was fairly common.
Johnnantais I thank you for trying to tell me what dynamics means to a turntable but I must admit to being little wiser. Although there is quite a lot in your answer with which I disagree I am not sure a debate will be fruitful if we do not subscribe to the same set of beliefs on which to base our arguments. However, I am sure we can both agree to enjoy the music however we may go about optimising the sound quality. Thanks again for taking the time to answer my questions.
Andy, I had a Mayware back in the late 70's and as I recall, the supplied fluid was rather thick stuff. Much thicker than olive oil. In fact, you had to give it time to actually level-out. Your best bet may be to use something thicker than the olive oil and then adjust the amount used by ear.
