Bones recommends solvents like carb cleaner or paint thinner. Citrus degreasers work but will leave a small amount of residue. I use carb cleaner myself. Just make sure not to use any solvents on the rubber components because they might 'eat' it up. The bones website has very thorough 'how to' instructions.

oranage cleaner is the best do not use anything to watery and never use gasline or paint thinner or anything like that its extremly harmful to your bearings

Absolutely do NOT use anything that contains water. Orange cleaning solution is the most "friendly" in terms of disposal and accidentally getting it on your skin. One company actually recommends using diesel fuel as a cleaning agent for their speed skate bearings.

Isopropryl Rubbing alcohol to clean, bones speed cream or any kind of thin lube for the lubing

Nothing too watery, that could easily be the worst for the bearings, so I suggest a little rubbing alcohol and something on the acidic side I've used lemon juice and it seems to work pretty well. As for lubrication, the bones speed cream is what I use but any approved bearing lube will work.

Here's what the owners' manual says concerning wheel bearings: IMPORTANT:DO NOT OIL OR GREASE PLASTIC WHEEL BEARINGS. VISCOUS LUBRICANTS WILL ATTRACT DUST AND DIRT THAT WILL SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE SELF-LUBRICATING BEARINGS. IF YOU FEEL THEY MUST BE LUBRICATED, USE ONLY A DRY, POWDERED GRAPHITE TYPE LUBRICANT SPARINGLY. There is a slight variation on ground speed depending on how hard you squeeze the handle, but not much. Just lifting the front wheels a bit will enable you to walk at your own pace with the mower. All in all agood mower.

Just use the same grease that you use in your car. A good brand of wheel bearing grease.

The factory lube is far better than chain oil. Do not wipe off or oil it until necessary. You can get many weeks if not months out of the chain before oiling it. If it squeaks it's past due.

I use HORIZON silicone threadmill lubricant. It comes in a package that contains 3 tubes. I use one tube every 4 months.

Just use the same grease as you would on your wheel bearings just use it sparingly. I love this system it just takes seconds to level my pop up.

Just oil with any chain lube you like. There are different types for different riding conditions but general purpose bike chain lube is fine. A 4oz bottle will last a long time. EDIT- wipe any excess cleaner off with a dry towel before lubing.

I used a good, high quality wheel bearing grease. By the way, they're working well! I hope that helps Kevin!

You can but three best option would be a lubricant that goes on wet, then dries. A good choice would be Tuf-glide.

Unless there is a definite need for Silicone Based Lubes I waould use water based. This product does not state but I would play it on the safe side. Thanks, Bob Bestway

I use whatever I have around. I used to work running a saw in the woods, We took used motor oil to lube our bars.

I use the fine powered graphite used to lubricate locks & hinges. Not greasy & works better in my opinion. Just wipe off excess.

It wouldn't work very well. I would use something silicon based too, like Pedro's bike lust. That way it lubes too.

I don't know about any lubricant. I gave the pads to a mechanic to install. What I can tell you is that these are great pads. The mechanic told me how good they were. Buy them!!!

Yes it can be used for bearings if the size is correct. Put bearings in freezer and heat wheel for easier install.

No, there is a Hoppe's No. 9 lubriating oil for which this appicator was designed to use versus the Hoppe's cleaning solvents. This oil is high quality and think it would work well to lubricate router bit bearings.

Sure you can use any type of lubricant you want to shave your face. Personally, I like the full experience of using shaving oil, soap and a brush. The brush and soap work as a lubricant for the blade, as well as exfoliating the skin around the hair for a cleaner shave.
