I have an iMac G5 keyboard with key action that is not as smooth as it
should be. I've cleaned it, thoroughly, but some keys still feel a bit tight. I don't think it was ever the best keybiard in the world... It's the type in which each key spring is a little cup of what I think is silicone rubber. I want to lubricate the keys. What would be the best kind of lubricant - a dry power, or a silicone grease spray? Silicone grease from a tube in the past wasn't very effective - it collected a lot of dust which made the keyboard stickier. Maplin offers: Silicone grease with PTFE: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=30030&&source=14&doy=3m1 Multipurpose silicone grease: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=29006&&source=14&doy=3m1 I can't find a dry power spray I used to use though. Thanks for any suggestions. Daniele |
