Do you guys lubricate the piano hinges on the control surfaces of your Kolbs ? I have read reports of these wearing on the elevator and rudder over time. If so what type of oil do you use on them ?

A dry lube like graphite spray would be good.
Wet sticky lubes get dirt and grit mixed in them and cause faster erosion of the metal parts....definitely not a good thing.
