Pinecar Derby Lubrication
Pinecar Derby Lubrication
(OP)
And on a not so serious note:
What is the best lubrication for pinecar derby cars? These involve a plastic wheel spinning on a metal (steel I assume) screw or nail. Everyone recommends dry graphite, but I think there may be something better, such as:
Silicone spray?
Elmer's Slide-All (Teflon based spray)?
Low viscosity oil?
Something else?
Also, I've heard suggested that nickel plating (or zinc?) of the axle could help.
Thanks, I appreciate the help!

Graphite has always been the standard for pinecars, I'm just wondering if something else might work better!
