Hi guys, I hope you've managed to dip your rods now we're steering towards normality!
I'm just doing some reel maintenance and was wondering if you'd recommend oiling the washers inside the spool?
I have 3 steel washers with 3 carbon washers in between. They're Shimano black mags.
Does anyone know how they're sold, ie dry or greased? Not a lot of info on the WWW.
Thanks in advance and tight lines!

That's what I thought, the Shimano's come with flimsy white ones which have already seized.
From memory I think they're sold with 3 spare?
Thanks!

Shimano now come with shiny plastic, not PTFE as some suggest. Never heard of any seizing before.
