    just use one drop and it will come apart, most people put too much on. but not coming apart easily is the point :)

    what do you guys use to lube your uniballs?

    this question makes me laugh because I am immature.

    Anyway, I've read dry teflon lube but can anyone recommend a specific product?

    Thats right, its DuPont. They make several different ones that are application specific. Just make sure your balls are nice and clean before spraying them, no grease!
