Lubrication application Shtick

My current process on applying zippy-doo juice to teeny tiny axels. Yes it involves tiny sticks.

I've given up on any precision... especially how often my cars end up upside down... I just started dunking them in the juice... then drip dry. Hard to pick up like a wet fish, but gotta try something as what I have been doing just aint cutting it!

  • Hmmm well I ain’t dunking them just yet but I am waxing them roofs just to be on the safe side — AbbyNormal

Those little sticks are cool.  I do not think I would ever need that many though.  


  • Well, you know that eventually they get either too worn out or too dirty or both. So you’ll need a few. — AbbyNormal
  • I've used them for years in model railroading. You can go thru them quite fast. — Zamak_Speed_Shop

PRO-TIP!   Search Amazon for Micro Brushes.  You can buy hundreds of them for less than $10.  They are called Dental grade micro brushes or micro applicators.   Enterprising individuals repackage them in small packs of 10 or 20 and sell them to hobbyists for $5 to $10.   Why buy 20 when you can get 400 for the same price :)


  • That’s a great find but are they… super fine? — AbbyNormal
