well i have a dv888, with a center trac bearing. Ive noticed with the stock flat bearing in it the binds are perfect, but with this centertrac bearings the bind does slip a bit, which is expected. Anyways ive came to the point in yoyoing were im comfortable with it 100%, i was thinking of siliconing it. Do yall think thats a good idea, or should i keep the k-pads in, Will the silicone act the same or do u think it will be the same? now as far as responsiveness im looking to have a completly unresponsive yoyo and the center trac bearing does it. but idk if silicone will help with the binds and what not, also i know one drop has clear silicone pads, do u think they would work. thanks in advance.
Siliconing the yoyo will normally make it unresponsive. But if I were you, I would NEVER replace or take out the k-pads unless they wear out.
As you know, there are many defects that may happen if you silicone it.
so if anything, when it comes time, just replace the k-pads? dont silicone it, do they have any silicone pads that are the same size as the k-pads?
Well, I would silicone it if they wear out. But I would never change k-pad with silicone. Like I would choose K-Pad over silicone. If it wears out, silicone will work great. But as you see, my siliconing job didn’t work well…just me maybe… 
Siliconing does not in itself make the yoyo unresponsive. The condition of the bearing is the driving factor. Prove it to yourself by lubing the bearing in a sili’d yoyo. It will be tug responsive. I can make a FHZ w/stickers or a YYJ HM with o-rings to be very unresponsive just by cleaning the bearing properly. Replacing friction stickers with Duncan sili pads does not make a FHZ unresponsive.
Agreed on that.
i may have not explained that correct? im not worried about being unresponsive/responsive, i have a center trac which i cleaned and put some thin lube on, so its unresponsive, and i did the same thing with my flat bearing. Im fine with that, im concerned with the the fact that my binds slip, all i wanted to know was when the k-pads wear out, if i was to replace them with silicone would that help? would the silicon help with the binds and what not.
So which is it then?? 
pretty much should i just replace my k-pads or should i silicone it? what is better and why? with the center trac bearing the binds tend to slip time to time.
If the K-pads are working fine for you, there’s really no reason to switch to silicone.
If and when the K-pads wear down, give silicone a try, and if you don’t like it, it takes 5 minutes to take it out and replace the k-pads.
The problem is that K-Pads are much more expensive. A set of K-Pads are few dollars while you ca buy a 7-8 dollar silicone tube and replace your yoyo’s response a 40-50 times. Siliconing, for me, makes the yoyo normal no different response and what not. K-Pads are ok but just expensive and you’ve got to wait for the shipping etc…
If you get K-Pads are great but only if you aren’t on budget.
As for jhb8426, I was saying this: A bad siliconing job, like me, would end up responsive.
Normally, somehow, other people silicone their yoyo’s with ease of unresponsiveness.
