The Valvoline stuff, even though it puts out an odor that takes forever to dissipate, works fine in my HP m820e. Just used the straw, dropped a few drops over the rails, moved the heads back and forth by the gears a few times to get total coverage, and that was it. Working fine ever since. -- If I didnt' have the Valvoline, I'd probably start off with the WD-40 stuff myself, even though that would evaporate a bit quicker and maybe not provide as long of a lubricant as the synthetic Valvoline. It's my first choice whenever I can't think of anything else to use. Grease tends to be a bit too thick for CD-ROM use - it'll pickup dust and eventually bind, stick, clog, jam up. You will want a synthetic - maybe a bike shop for some chain synth lubs if you can't find anything else. That one in a black bottle, what was it the use for bike chains? That's a decent alternative to the Valvoline as well. Pro-synth? Pro-lube? Whatever, there's only one in a black plastic squeeze bottle out there today. -- Anyways, metal tape really doesn't do much as far as I can see. Nothing electrically there, maybe used only because it won't stretch or pull out of shape like plastic tapes? ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________________________ Yahoo! - We Remember 9-11: A tribute to the more than 3,000 lives lost http://dir.remember.yahoo.com/tribute ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
