I use hoppe's 9 rifle lubercating oil. The stuff is really tacky, it last a while, sucks into the cracks well, and keeps cleaner, and acually cleans the changer. My msa changer was really grimmy. And always had black broken down oil on it. I started using the hoppe's and the oil on it started to clear and it acually helped clean the gunk from the changer. It works |

I'm with you, Jordan! I use sewing machine or gun oil. I don't care for dry lubes because they won't migrate after they're applied. |

Donny, I'm sure you know that the TriFlow, that many here recommend, is a liquid when it's applied and that liquid evaporates leaving the teflon particles behind. It's isn't the same as a "dry" lube. It is extremely effective as a lube for pedal steel guitars, and migrates down into areas, like changers, very well.
TriFlow does come in a few different configurations, though. So one must be sure they're picking the right one. Here's a picture of the one I choose.

Just wanted to keep the record straight. _________________ Best regards,
