Put nozzle into lock, seal off flap with fingers give a few pumps, then use key to lock / unlock to distribute.  Maybe an old 3-in-one can would suffice.  Are you advising not to? Or was oil preesure can not a good discription? Did not understand what you meant by oil pressure can.  I understand now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Janus   28 #14 Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) Oil cans with the trigger to create a bit of pressure can be useful.  I am not sure exactly what is appropriate to use inside car door locks. I don't think it would be a substance as thick as oil. Oil is a very good lubricator for some applications. However, an oily surface/mechanism that has light/delicate moving parts can eventually clog with dirt that adheres to the oily surface.  I have had some good results with graphite powder on a large padlock, but have not used it in a car door lock. There may be someone on here that knows what is appropriate. Edited January 13, 2021 by Janus Typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
