Kindly specify which brand?

I tried Super Lube once, it has Teflon. I sprayed the oil into a film canister and soaked two good Tamiya bearings overnight. The bearings got messed up. I removed the seal and found white stuff blocking the small balls from turning smoothly.

It works great on plastic gears though (TA03)
