Just a caution about this jelly -- don't use it on rubber. I had an
embarrassingly long-running problem with a squeak in a damper pedal which
would come back within hours of being lubed with this "jelly". The problem
turned out to be the rubber cap at the bottom of the pedal rod. I finally
replaced the cap and lubed the new one with teflon powder; it's been many
months now with no squeak yet.
