what you use

[brendan]

hey,,,,what do you guys use to lubricate the felt rings on your 360i,,,can you use wd40?

 

[joe harper]

Use 30 weight oil for the felt on a RX 20...!!!!!

I would assume the same for those TonKa-ToyS... :roll:

WD 40...would NOT be recommended...IMO

 

[brendan]

lol...sound thanks,,,would you soak it every job are just ones per day,,sorry but the dvd rotovac sent me isnt reading on my dvd

 

[floorguy]

why do you need to lube it??? Had my older one for over a year, only took it off once to see what things looked like in there.....

unless the I is different, i dont think it needs "lube"

 

[Eric Valentine]

Get a can of dry teflon (PTFE) lubricant from Home Depot. Do NOT get Liquid Wrench brand (takes too damn long to dry). Spray the felt seal thoroughly, and I spray the base plate with a little too. Respray the felt every so often.

I dumped oil on mine the before the first use and have been running it for about 8 months.

 

[Jim Martin]

there is a few things you can do..get a few extras and have them soaking in a tupperware container filled with 30 weight oil and every so often rotate them out..this will keep them lasting longer....or you can get a zoom spout oiler and put some on the felt ring every so often....

not real sure what is going on with the felt rings for the RX...the old ones use to be harder and last a long time..the newer ones are now really soft and do not like to seat into the ring....I guess they figured if they cant sell the RX like they use to..they had to come up with some other way of getting our money.........
