Will thick lube make the unresponsive Raptor responsive?

Yo-Yo Mods and Maintenance

I’m getting a Duncan Raptor, and I’m wondering if using thick lube on it will make it responsive. I got pretty good at yoyoing a few years ago, but I never had to bind the old yoyo. I’m considering using thick lube to warm up my skills before switching to thin lube.

Does the same thick lube make each yoyo as responsive as the next, or will different yoyos have different responsiveness with the same lube? If the latter is true, would I need to bind a Raptor using thick lube?

Even enough thin lube will make it responsive. Any thick lube should work fine.

Just apply some and see how it works. If it doesn’t seem responsive enough, add a bit more.
