>> Good morning to everyone. Does anyone have any suggestions for a material to lubricate very lightly the two mating surfaces of lens and lens mount. Yes, I know I can look online, and I have, but I’d like to hear/read suggestions from “real” folks who I trust and value their opinions and who have had good results. Thanks.
