Max Pro application

[Cubscout Dad]

Can PM me or share for everyone. Just picked up some RR and DD4H oil. What is the proper application technique for Max Pro?

Thanks ahead of time

Hit up Pony Express. I imagine application would be similar to Jig, but it's a good question.

Lightly spray on axles and lube as directed with DD4H. Some people add oil, shake off the excess and insert into wheels. Some people wick any extra oil with small pieces of paper and insert into wheels.

Side Note: Unlike Jig, Max Pro says it's plastic safe and I've tested it on a junk set of wheels to see if there is any danger of melting the plastic. Immediately after spraying on the wheels I didn't see or feel any adverse affects. After spraying the axles, I still waited 15 minutes as a precaution before inserting them in the wheels.

Called Max Pro to ask them about the difference between Heavy-Duty and regular that I found at Micro Center. The difference is one has 3% silicone and the Heavy Duty has 7%. What one do guys use?

 

[W8NONU]

Heavy Duty - 7%

So just treat it like Jig then?

That's what I have heard... but have not personally used the stuff, I've got a lifetime supply of Jig on hand. /images/boards/smilies/cool.gif
