    Re: Rupes Maintenance

    I'm sold on the MKII.

    Thanks for the sold advice everyone.

    Now, the pronunciation of Rupes...

    I've heard:

    Rüps (Like you're German)
    Rupéz (Like you're French)
    Ru-peas (Like you just smashed open a couple of pots playing Zelda)

    I've been calling it Ru-peas for a couple of years now.

    Dielectric grease is what's recommended.

    Bingo! Dielectric grease is the best solution, however petroleum jelly will work in a pinch.
