Looking for the latest thinking on how to clean and lubricate all door lock and handle parts once the door cards are off and one has access to everything. I am excluding window lubrication, that topic is well covered in other posts.
The mechanisms of interest are:
A) Door latch
B) Door handle
C) Lock cylinder
D) External door lock (key side)
E) Tumbler assembly
F) Actuator mechanism/rods
and the materials mentioned often are:
1) Brake cleaner
2) PB Blaster
3) Grease
4) White silicone grease
5) Compressed air
6) Graphite spray
7) Graphite powder
Your job is to associate letters with numbers, and a letter can have more than one number in the order applied.
Once the ballots are in I will be the guinea pig for the winning combo. Ride in candidates are welcome.
PS: My plan so far is
A24, B4, C6, D14, E4, F3
