I was thinking about taking out the rubber rings in the yomega maverick, and replacing them with silicone. I just wanted to make sure it will still play well after I do so.

Do you have the old or new Maverick? Does yours have the “barb-wire” engraved on the sides and a ‘C’ size bearing or no? If you silicone the new it will become more unresponsive. If you silicone the old it will do nothing.

my pads are a little worn, but I haven’t played it enough for pads that thick to really wear out. I siliconed it, just have to wait for it to dry.

I siliconed it. After breaking the silicone in, it now plays unresponsively. Might even have longer sleep times.
