Cleaning and lubricating window risers

[Bob Bidonde]

I used white lithium grease on the gears of the window regulators and motor oil on the shafts in my Victoria back in 2016 and all is well. I did the same on my Coupe in 1980 and the regulators work well.

I also use white lithium grease on the gears, but I use TriFlow on the shafts. TriFlow is a teflon enhanced light oil developed by (I think) Boeing, available on Amazon. I also drip a couple of drops of TriFlow on the horn felts periodically, it works well.
