I presume that since these are relatively delicate mechanisms, >I'd want a pretty light grade lubricant. I'll check AutoZone, and perhaps >a can of pure silicone spray with a directable WD40 style tube. -=*CAUTION*=- If you can check a suitable lubricant with the manufacturer, do so. I've never been inside one of these beasties, and I don't know which of the many nylons they use. Many pro-audio CD players use a white grease rather than a thin lube - I think there is a danger of chemical reaction with the plastics if the wrong stuff is used. If David has had good results with his solution, you're probably best using it.
