PTFE/Teflon oil are excellent for this kind of applications, often better than silicon oil used by manufacturers. The Superlube PTFE oil comes in a handy pen format, for 5 bucks per 0.25oz.
SME Spindle Oil - Where To Buy
I recently moved to a new house and in the process some of the spindle oil drained out of my SME 20/2.
I thought I had some extra but I can't find it so I'm looking for a source. I am also wondering if another brand of oil that is more readily available might work just as well?
I'm pretty sure I can find it on overseas websites but I'd rather find it in the U.S. I did ask Music Direct but they don't have it.
Thanks for your help.
