> [@Ko-Atom](#): > > Yes but don’t need to be washed in mineral spirits. Yes they do if something gets in there, which is extremely possible and likely. They also come lubed from the factory. If you lube a YYJ bearing weekly or whenever you feel necessary you won’t have to wash it. ---

Probably, but is it worth buying a new one more often??? How would something get in there if there’s a closed gap and shields on??? ---

You open it up and something gets in there. Or any time you have the yo-yo or bearing open. There might be a little dust on the bearing seat. There is a ton of ways. ---

Okay, needle, blow it off, how would something get in there if you put the yoyo half with the bearing on it on a bed or a dresser? ---
