Door Hinge lube

Hey fellow V-Crossers and Vibers! How do you lube your door hinges? Two of mine have plastic caps at the top that I can pop off and squirt into but the others appear like standard house door pins except the ends don't look like the ones in my house--those pins are as tight as a tick and I can't figure out how to raise them so lube can get in.

This stuff works!!
It took all the squeaks out of my RV door hinges.
It's also handy for other stuff around an RV.

Door lube

Thanks for that product notification but are you saying it will get into the really tight hinges since I can't raise the hinge pin to get access into the hinge frame?

Yes- that's what I'm saying.
It's a penetrating lube.
It comes with a capillary tube to aim your spray.
Give the hinges a good shot and catch the drips with a wad of paper towel.
Work the door a few times.
Bingo- no more squeaks.
And it smells sort of minty- pine?
Don't worry the smell goes away in a few hours.

Recommended for slides too.
Also works for bicycle chains and pedals.

Happy Trails!!
