I just got a limited edition dark magic in the mail from ratfacedoodguy used, and I lubed it, it’s acting responsiveish. How long should it take for it to break down the lube so it will stop that? ---

You overlubed it. Its not a big deal, just keep playing it slightly responsive. It smooths out your style even if its only a bit responsive. ---

if you badly want it unresponsive you could just clean the bearing but i would suggest you just keep playing it for a few days ---

lighter fluid. just look it up on youtube its easy. you have to take off the sheilds first. then relube it but leave out the thick lube, just a tiny bit of thin lube will do it.
