About switch lubing
Lubing your switches results in smoother switches, a deeper "thockier" sound profile, and more consistent key presses. There are a lot of options for lubing, and everyone has their own preference for how they like their switches to feel and sound.
If separation occurs when you receive your product (especially on Trybosys grades) this is ok! Give it a good stir before using.
💡 Read our Switch Lubes - The Basics article, written by guest contributor Ashkeebs. It covers what lubing your switches does, the different kinds of lubricants available, and other factors to consider.
