: I can't find any info on what kind/brand of lube to use on my film cameras. I have old cameras: Bolex, Filmo, Keystone, etc. Somebody give me some info!! Thanks!
I'm fairly certain you'd be fine using sewing machine oil or any other light, clear machine oil. The oil should be applied with a toothpick after the part has been degreased (hint!! this means very little oil.)
If you want to buy the right stuff, Micro-Tools sells a whole range of lubricants to camera repair technicians. The link is below.
