YoYojam lube vs Brain Lube?

Yo-Yo Mods and Maintenance

Well, i was on amazon looking for yoyo lube.
What i found were this:http://www.amazon.com/YoyoJam-Jam-Lube-Thin/dp/B0016JEB68/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1296264590&sr=8-1 the yoyojam lube

and this:http://www.amazon.com/Yomega-YOMEGAOIL-Brain-Lube-Pack/dp/B000L0CCZU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1296264617&sr=8-2 the yomega brain lube.

Which one should i get? Yomega brain lube seems to be more expensive, but im not really sure. Also, if yoyojam lube is better, is thick or thin more recommended? I want to make my yoyo more responsive. Thanks

yyj thin lube keeps your unresponsive bearings alive and running smooth brain lube keeps your yoyo responsive

Yoyojam thin lube helps your bearing last longer, and makes it less responsive. Yoyojam thick lube makes your yoyo more responsive. Yomega brain lube also as well makes your yoyo more responsive. I would prefer the Yoyojam THICK lube for what you stated.

No it doesn’t when used properly.

First, you can buy Brain Lube in the hardware store. Look for A clear pen tube of SuperLube PTFE oil. Made by Synco Chemical. Synco packages the same stuff for Yomega as Brain Lube.

Use Brain Lube or Thick lube for more response, but as noted above used in the proper quantity it will not make your yoyo too responsive.

uh oh, couldn’t find the pen…

There’s probably other brands of PTFE lube. PTFE means it’s teflon based. You can also use fishing reel lube or gun lube.

i recommend using V4M, it’s all i’ve used since it was made. great stuff.
but between YYJ lube, and brain lube, i’d go with YYJ lube.

Most anything other than YYJ thin lube will do what he is asking for.
