    Great video! I tried this method and it worked pretty well. I came back a few days later and re did it using the spray version of this lubricant and I had much better results. It was a little more messy but easier over all to apply with the little red tube. Having a little pressure behind the lubricant seems to get it into all the nooks. If I sprayed too much I would cover the switch with some tissue and blow it out with compressed air which helped to dry it out and push out the excess. Also, since the spray version has a solvent it is a thinner when it comes out of the can to allow the grease to get into the smaller spaces. It does seem to get even better over time as the spray version is intended to dry. You should give it a try in a follow up video. Wildcat is the only youtuber I have seen try it. Thank you for giving me this option! I was so bummed when I realized that my plate did not allow me to remover my switch tops.

    Spray lubing is indeed a little superior method to this one, as it also covers the spring inside the switch more evenly then using the oil. It also leaves a thinner layer of lube so tactile switches feel a little better overall. But both methods are a great improvement over stock switches.

I recently purchased an fairly cheap mechanical keyboard at a local store as I was lead by the sales dude that the switches are swappable -- as an entry point into my mechanical keyboard tinkering journey. I broke one of the switches trying to pull it out, so I couldn't return it. Long story short, I just saved that keyboard from dumpster by lubing the switches as shown here, and for that I am very grateful. Cheers!~

    Just oiled my Corsair K70 with mx cherry reds, worked perfectly it took me 30 mins. The difference in sound and feeling is huge. Took a step further and lubed also the stabilizers with a syringe and silicon grease (it needs a lot of force to squeeze the grease out of the syringe) with a little effort you can reach all the hinges and joints, without disassembling the board. Next one in line is my Anne Pro 2 with MX browns.

    I just did it to my spare board on mx brown, and must say that the results are surprisingly good. This method is great for anyone with a prebuild keyboard, let's be honest desoldering and latr soldering switches just to lube them the standard way is way too much effort and time involved so this way works perfectly. If anyone comes into any connectivity issues either try to work the switch, and if that won't help get compressed air and use it on the side of the switch that has contact leaf (the side where the brand name/logo is located) should help to get rid of the excess of lube and make the switch work again, in my case I had it happen to my ",". Generally saying if you're making a custom keyboard go with the standard way of lubing, open up the switch, lube it with krytox/trybosis or mcg with a brush, lube the spring properly etc. Let's be honest we can put some work here as most of the time the switches we're using cost anywhere from 0,50 to near 1$, but on a prebuild board with cherry mx/kailh/gaterons this way is fine, results are satisfactory and SOOOO much better then the stock experience.

    I just modded my VELOCIFIRE TKL02WS using this lubing method. The board comes with Outemu Brown Switches and lubed these sound pretty hot! Thanks to this video and others like :3ildcat that have lubed with this method. The process of lubing has been made much more convenient to do so. I even tried this method with my NK Silk Blacks. It improved the sound and feel beautifully, which means this lubing method is quite effective as it is should be able to reach far down enough to coat the slider and possibly the spring. Producing a more satisfyingly dampened sound and buttery key press. I will take apart a switch that I have lubed like this too see where exactly the lube has coated the interior of the Switch. I am curious because I wonder if it is just the lube sitting sort of at the top dampening the sound or if it is thoroughly coating the bottom and spring as well. I highly recommend trying to lube your switches like this you will not regret it, just make sure not to apply too much!
