i’d go in a partial order with you. i can’t justify ordering a full tube
Hey if you guys do this I’ll go in on it too.
Oh wow.
I didn’t know that you guys would be interested in doing.
so i got bored and went ahead and cleaned up one of the ls32s and used the new grease i bought.
I applied it last night before i went to sleep. Testing it out this morning, my motions feel alot smoother and i dont feel any friction. So its doing the job. Now time is the test.
A tube of shin etsu grease will last forever! Ive maybe lubed 10 joysticks and barely dented my tube. What were you guys thinking of putting the grease into . I might be willing to do a little container for 5 or so bucks shipped. I’ll go to this little craft store tomorrow and look for some containers.
I say do it. You can probably make some some money back on that grease you bought.
Go and get some oral syringes. And then sell them in the trading outlet.
A person uses about 1cc of toothpaste a day i’m guessing, so 3ml/cc should be a 5 years supply for most people. 1cc=1mL
Just make sure you roll them in some stiff cardboard taped up in a bubble mailer when you ship to keep it from squeezing out.
Also found a 1cc container. Proabably the same amount that a thermal paste syringe has.
Feel free to PM me if you plan to go through with it.
Cool.
Looks like I won’t have to do any work.
Laugh.
Passed on to masturfader now.
aj, I guess a dab of lube (fingernail size?) might be sufficient enough to get the shaft working nicely.
Okay , since this was passed on to me I picked up some containers that hold 5 grams. They were about .55 cents a piece. So .55 + .80 del. conf. + up to 1.00 envelope + guessing .80 shipping and all the time spent.
.55+.80.+1.00+.80= 3.15 So I’m thinking 8 bucks shipped for 5 grams of grease. What do you guys think?
This stuff goes a LONG way. The amount I use is miniscule. I take the cap off the tube, run my finger inside the cap and voila , thats the magical amount.
Let me know what you guys think. Heres a link to my FS thread…

Has anybody tried using hair grease or pomade?
Never mind. I read that pomade has petroleum.
I think I’m going to try this product though.
sending out the first batch of containers now.
You already got people?
Quick.
I’ve ordered some off Masturfader… Will compare the G-40M vs the G-30M and will let anyone know if there’s any difference
I got one. I wanted to compare it to the “MG Chemicals translucent silicone grease” that I got.
nice, you guys give us an update
Yup. everyone that ordered some just got mailed out. will be sending tracking out later.
Did you profit? Good job if you did.
Just got the grease from masturfader. So I was rubbing the grease between my fingers index and thumb, one in each hand. With the shin etsu compared to my MG chemicals silicone grease, the Shin Etsu was definitely lighter and and more fluid, like vaseline. The MG chemicals grease felt more sticky, more viscious, but very similar. As far as using on a Joystick, I would think that the difference in feel is negligible due to the actual force applied, so I’m guessing that the 30-M would work fine.
Got it already, nice! I havent “made” any money yet if I can sell 6 of them i think I’ll break even and have some grease for myself.
anyone else need some :bgrin:
Probably would sell better if you put the shin etsu grease in a seperate thread with it’s own title.
