RE: [DML] What kind of lubricant should be used on door latches?

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Like Dave said:
WD40 is a good cleaner and starts lawn mowers real good. If you want to
lubricate hinges, torsion bars and other things you can't get grease into ,
then use the Poly 250 is on the web site. It comes out like WD40 but sets up
quickly to a high / low temp grease. It also doesn't wash off at the carwash
for a long time and coats against against rust.

I think it's been said before, WD40 is not a lubricant. Use chassis grease
or white lithium grease on the door latches. Make sure you wipe off any
extra that may end up on the pins so you don't end up wiping it off with
your butt.
