Cheap Way To Lubricate Squeaky Hinges

RE: Cheap Way To Lubricate Squeaky Hinges By KJ (Guest Post) I've used Pam/other cooking spray - and it works well. Be careful when spraying though, as too much will drip out of the hinge for a while.

You'll be applying WD-40 every few weeks if you only use it. The best thing I've found is take the hinge pins out (1 at a time), clean them with WD-40, scrub them with extra fine steel wool, and dip them in Motorcycle Chain Lubricant (1 bottle costs a few dollars, but will last a long time for hinges). The MCL is meant to stand up to road conditions, humidity, and temperature.

It works, and depending on your soap, it smells good. Posted on 01/16/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cheap Way To Lubricate Squeaky Hinges By (Guest Post) Try hair spray. It works on squeaky hinges, drawers and my office chair.

I found mine in the boating section at Wal-mart, but it can also be purchased at marinas and boating supply stores. It is designed to protect against the corrosion of saltwater, but I have used it for both indoor and outdoor applications that are nowhere near saltwater! It is long lasting after the initial application and inexpensive as well. I have had very good luck with it, from lubricating anything from my car door hinges to my kitchen cabinet hinges!

I would think that should work. Posted on 01/09/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cheap Way To Lubricate Squeaky Hinges By Patricia Morrison (Guest Post) Have you tried WD-40?
