Lubing window regulators

[Craig Lebakken]

Probably a good idea Brendan. I have some synthetic greases
that I use for my mountain bike that would work real well. I
mean the stuff begs for water and mud, so this would be an
easy application. If I have to rebuild another window, I
will probably use this. But the lithium grease has worked
well for three years now.......
