Orange seal ceramics????? Oil or not to oil???

[Sabine slayer]

I know you can use the ceramics dry but I heard the use of a light lube will reduce the noise they produce....

Any suggestions????

You have to use a certain type of oil on them. If you use regular reel oil like quantum hot sauce it will gum up on you because of the ceramic. I think there is some stuff out there called rocket fuel that is made for them but I'm not 100% on that.

Is it really worth the cost to change out the bearing???

Dont get the orange seals. Go with the stainless.
1. Soak bearing or blow it out with carb cleaner if you know how to remove the stainless sheilds

2 place bearing on towel and let it dry for about 10 minutes

3 put a small drop of thin oil in bearing
(i use royal purple) rem oil is good also

4 spin bearing and install
