The video below is the quickest way to clean and lubricate your rubber-sealed bearings to get you back to racing in no time.

The product Used in the Video Above

– Paper towel (to soak up the dirt)

– Hobbie knife (for opening the bearing)

– Isopropyl alcohol (the cleaner – higher % the better)

– Bearing Cleaning Unit (or just use the tube the bearing comes in – the thing I was shaking the alcohol in to clean the bearing)

– Liberty oil synthetic lubricant (oil used in the bearing)

– Pencils (used to spin the bearing easier)

– Silicone dry spray ( spray on the outside of the bearing – helps keep dirt and moisture out – don’t use as a lubricant)

– Extra… Ultrasonic Cleaner (gets bearing much cleaner than shaking it yourself)
