Hope this helps someone out there! That stuff is amazing and I want every who thinks that adding lube slows a bearing down see this and think again. Terrapin has some wizardry going on.

Nicely done. This is very similar to how I use Terrapin dry lube. The difference in our techniques is I blow the bearings dry with canned air and I drop a drop of acetone in the bearing after lubing. I may try your “dunk method”

If i had an eye dropper, I would use that. I only dip the end in cause I dont have a proper dropper, and my air can died a while back and i keep forgetting to replace it when im out! haha
