I use Quantam Hot sauce and Lucas reel oil

Another vote for Hot Sauce
Recently cleaned a reel for a friend, had to soak it repeatedly in solvent to get all the old grease out of everything and then clean it up good with Reel Kleen and a toothbrush , Lube the gears with a little ABU reel grease all the bearings and everything else with Hot Sauce
friend said he had to learn how to cast again because the reel was so free, seem like all it took was a flip of the wrest to get same distance he was getting before casting his arm off

I also use tsi 321 it lasts longer than most oils,2nd choice is lucas reel oil,as for wd 40 since the epa forced it to be changed years ago it only does one thing right,the name says what it does (water displacement).

Another vote for Yellow Rocket Fuel. One drop per bearing and no more

THIS.

Zoom Turbine Oil but Ive heard tsi321 is good too

I like the hot sauce as well. One drop will do you. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Lots of good oil. Lucas, Hot sauce, Rocket fuel, Garcia and Penn.

Its just a fishing reel your oiling.

ZPI hands down the best.

ZPI TW

Crisco

TSI 301 is what I use on bearings, ZPI medium grease on gears, and Shimano drag grease. I've worked on my own reels and others for a while now. This is the best combination I have found.

TG's Rocket Fuel is the best bearing oil I've ever used.

Lucas Oil and I use the Shimano grease for friction parts.

Of the one's I have tried I like the Boca Bearing Lightning Lube the best.
