Lubing bearings

Lubing is simply means applying or dripping little sum of lubricant into your yoyo. You can actually buy the lubes from various stores but the one that i got is from Toycity. You know ... the shop that sells lots of Tamiya mini 4WD car .. Yea, that place. Neway, the main purpose of lubing is to make the yoyo more responsive. After certain amount of time playing with your yoyo, you will realised that the yoyo might not wind up as easily as usual when you flick it. So by lubing the bearings, it will restore the responsiveness of the yoyo. Here are a the few simple steps for you to lube your bearings :

Step1:Remove your strings and open apart your yoyo.


Step2:Apply a drop of lube into the bearing as shown below. Not too much otherwise the string will be soaked with the lube instead of penetrating into the bearing itself.

Step3:Put back together the other half and off you go. Its ready to be played again !
Simple right ?

Below are 2 type of lubes that I currently have.
This lube is from Supereyoyo season. I got it like ..mmmm... maybe around ...5 yrs back.. Yes~ i know~"it can last that long ???" Yes, it CAN last that long cause you will only need a drop of it and not the entire bottle but it will also depend on the frequency of usage. The frequent you use it, the faster the lube will be gone.. hehehe..
Neway the above lube is thicker than the one below.
This lube is produced by YOTECH and it can be purchased from TOYCITY. I hope this info helps in anyway for you ! Keep yoing !!
