Molykote 44 Joystick/N64 stick grease *FREE* - U pay 4 ship

[s1mplehumar]

Anyway, is this stuff safe on any and all joysticks/controllers? Or are you not privy to that kind of info? I thought I remembered one controller using an optical sensor and I wouldn't want to mess anything up.

Hmm, you might consider dielectric grease for that job. Maybe someone else can chime in on this.

Thanks for the reply. I've never heard of dielectric grease. I'll check into it.

The N64 stick uses optical sensors instead of variable resistors. You wouldn't be smearing grease near the code wheels and the sensors. Also the point is to just use a little bit where needed, not have it oozing everywhere. On joysticks and pads you'd only be using it on pivots. It should be safe on all plastic bits, but of course YMMV.

^ Thanks Hobie. I wasn't quite sure what jp1 was trying to lube, so I thought it best to recommend something non-conductive. I learned a few things today.

I'd like to offer this stuff for free now as a service to the community. Please send me a PM if you're interested. I ask only that you pay for shipping the grease.

Couple people on board.

Bump.

I'm embarrassed to say this, but I could use some lubricant. PM incoming...

Grabbed some new containers. Hit me up.

Hmm, might need some of this. PM sent.
