Got a new set of door stop rollers from Mikey 914 rubber to install and naturally while in in there...

Have a spray can of teflon grease. Yellow sticky goo. Have another spray can of silicon chain lube.

What's best for both door handles inside and outside? For the locking rods? For the door stay rollers? The window track and gears (late doors)?

Do you use something else than what I've got?

...and why can't both dooor stay rollers be metal? It's a thought.

I use bicycle chain lube. Just a little bit. More than that and it just gets dirty faster.

Make sure you are using bike chain lube specifically made for dry conditions. The other stuff will just attract dirt and grit and make the parts wear faster.
