I've got some older biners that are getting a bit sticky. Any ideas on the best lube to use?

maybe your biners are sticky because you can't keep your hands off the lube?

Hmmm.....going on previous Chocky comments, I'm quite sure he beat a lot of people to it! Bit surprised WWS was pipped at the post...

This sounds like two completely separate threads to me. Could one of the mods please split them up and move to the appropriate forum? Maybe Gear Lust and Accidents & Injuries?

Graphite works really well. You can get it from most hardware places.

I've heard you can get a nasal spray if you need more lead in your pencil

So far Butters is definitely the winner.

I actually thought Mr Sheen was a pretty good answer. Just sit there and polish it. Gotta do something with the odd socks.

Surely making them stand up by themselves makes them more odd not less...

I thought we were talking about biners. Not sitting there with an odd sock 'polishing' on you own.

It took two posts for it to degenerate into a slurry of smut and innuendo. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
