Dry graphite lock lubricant

Are you sure you want to be spraying graphite around near a laptop?

Well, I take your point on its potential conductivity, but I would consider
it highly unlikely that sufficient could actually get inside to anywhere
'electrical' enough to cause a problem, when treating an external hinge.
Obviously, a degree of common sense would have to be applied, but perhaps I
am assuming too much, as WD40 has already been tried ... :-) I notice that
you have carefully removed the question mark that I had after the word
"lubricant" which changes its context rather, from the 'possibility
suggestion' intended, to a statement, which certainly wasn't intended.
