mark indigo -> machine head lubricant (May 26 2010 1:33:28)
|
I was told years ago to regularly oil machine heads (the cog wheel bits) to prevent excessive wear, and used a drop of 3-in-1 on each when i changed strings. A little while ago i read somewhere that this kind of oil "attracts" dust, which increases wear, that a thick grease type of lubricant should be used, and that Vaseline would be ideal. I did try a search on this as I expect it has been thrashed out before, but can anyone tell me which is it, thick grease Vaseline or light all purpose 3-in-1 oil? Or is there something else I should use?
