Sometimes you just need enough to get the job done.
Sanwa and Seimitsu joysticks make use of silicone grease to lubricate the joystick shaft's pivot cylinder. This allows for fluid movement during play. All joysticks come with a small amount of the grease already applied, but it can wear down over time.
Before now, you could purchase only the Shin-Etsu Silicone Grease (100g) tube. For most, this was enough for several years or several hundred applications. This was potentially overkill, and expensive depending on your intended use.
FA.DAB contains just that - a small dab of the same quality Shin-Etsu silicone grease that is available in the 100g tube. This is perfect for several applications, and at a price that makes joystick maintenance a cheap affair.
Each dab is encased in a .20 ounce vial with flip cap with label. Applying the Shine-Etsu grease from the FA.DAB vial to your joystick is easy. Check out the helpful video by Joey Wainright for application tips.
It was a little less than what I expected it to be but it was enough to grease two sticks just fine. Joe on Jun 25th 2021
this is one of those items you'd probably over look or ask why bother, but I can safely say after re-lubing the pivots on all 3 of my levers that they perform much more smoothly than before. whether that's due to inconsistencies from the manufacturers or just usage over time, the change is noticeable after using this product.

I used about 1/4 of the included grease to re-lube my JLF after years of use. It's really convenient not having to pay for the whole tube, and there is more than enough included. Unknown on Oct 5th 2020
Title says it all. This stuff works wonders!

This should last you a decade if you’re generous with it. I bought two just to be safe, but this just might last it my entire life. Kaden “MetalKaden” Flores on Aug 11th 2019
This is really good for your arcade levers! Once your lever gets too finicky like it gets a bit squeaky, this is the one that will fix that. Really great for the maneuverability of the Joystick. JustOTGFrames on Aug 9th 2019
Huge value considering how little you actually need per use. Used a dab of a dab for the three JLFs I did maintenance on. Perfect amount of buttery smoothness! Unknown on Jul 13th 2019
Sanwa JLF sticks will probably need some touching up now and then, and this grease is the way to go. My sticks feel brand new after I applied some of this to them. Unknown on Apr 23rd 2019
A little dab will do ya!! Unknown on Apr 18th 2018
UPDATE FROM FA: Please note that content size of "dab" can vary from photos, and cannot represent the contents of every container.
The grease does the job it's supposed to do. Only criticism I have is you will not get nearly the same size dollop as the one in the picture. I don't have a means of weighing the actual amount in my container but if it comes out to .30 ounces I don't have a right to complain but you definitely get about a quarter of gel compared to the picture. The product itself works fine. Unknown on Mar 19th 2018
