...maybe I read it wrong.When I bought my Calcutta 51 TE I did in fact notice a generous dab of grease atop the spool bearings but just figured that was residual from greasing the pads in which the spool shaft ends ride. I do notice that a new reel feels soooo buttery smooth and silent and seems to lose that with a little use to some degree. How can I keep that "out of the box" feel?
What I try to avoid is unnessacarily assembling/disassembling my reels as I believe this adds to accelarated wear over time.
Also...I have and use the Shimano Drag Grease as well as the lighter AR-B grease....could you run down what greases you guys use,how liberally or sparingly, and where?
I am SPECIFICALLY asking about the Calcuttas FWIW.
