Lubricants

I saw that you posted a message about noisy computer fans and thought you might be interested in what I found:

Do a search for a product called 'FanLube'. It is a high quality silicone lubricant that is specially formulated for noisy computer fans. It worked wonders for my noisy laptop fan! And their website has a demo video and pix to show you how to apply it. Also FAQs to explain why other oils like sewing machine oil, 3-in-one and WD-40 are not suitable.
