I inherited a LA-Z-BOY reclining armchair. It has not been used a lot and
the reclining mechanism is very stiff. Is there a way of lubricating it
without (sooner or later) getting the lubricant on the carpet below?


a) clean it, dont lube it
b) use grease, it doesnt drip. Dont overdo it.


And if you can find it, use a molybdinum based grease and it will last
for ages. You only need a tiny amount and it sticks the the metal like
the proverbial.
