sticky controls

Guest · Posted: Sun Mar 16, 2008 12:19 am Post subject: sticky controls

I dug an old Ross Mixer out of the basement and several of the controls were hard to turn, I tried to clean them with NU-TROL and they worked great. Unfortunately after 3-4 days some of them get sticky again. If you turn them several times they loosen up again, for 3-4 days!! Is there anything else I can use to lubricate them?
Thanks, Len

Depending on the control type/wear condition, the best product I've used is made by caig labs. Lots of controls (specially the slider type) must have some sort of lubrication which is usually either dried-out or washed out by most "cleaners"

Look about the middle of the following page for
