G'day,

It was recommended to me to use some silicon spray on my LT centreboard. Is this a good choice for the job?

I don't know about WD-40, might be a bit oily.

I started with Ronstan SailSmart and Harken McLube but I now use just a normal hand pump pack of the Armourall Original Protectant. The pump pack means it doesn't go everywhere and it's made for lubing rubber so I think it helps the gaskets last longer...

I have been using the armor all multi purpose cleaner. Works like a treat .

Spray centerboard and inside the gasket, then sail all day no worries

Its made by the same company, hence the branding. but its not WD-40, It's silicone spray. Same as the rest of them.

yep, it will do the job.

Excellent! Thanks everyone :)

Have you done the gasket mod? How are you running your CB, permenant or removable? Have you packed out the CB case to hold the XB more firmly?
