200LX Hinge Lubricant

[JuanJ]

Hello,

A few drops of penetrating oil and some Vaseline work for me.

I broke a few hinges in the past until I came up with this mixture.

Remove the hinges. Apply the penetrating oil with a syringe or a dropper, clean the excess. Then apply the Vaseline. Clean out the excess and install the hinges. Turn them a few (up to 10) times to test fit before tightening up the screws.

The same procedure works for laptop hinges as well.

Hope this helps.
