    Right into the lock, not all over it, but other things work without being so messy if you aren't really careful.

    For darn sure, use the straw with anything of that nature.

    Yeah just a little dab 'll do ya. I've used the rubber coated lock for a simple secure, when it got hard to unlock in a salty winter I sprayed a little Amsoil lubricant in there with the straw of course. Haven't had to worry about it sense
