Default Need lubricant suggestion for Solis Palazzo

Hi, etc.

I've had a Solis Palazzo for about six months now. After weekly washings of the
brew unit, most of the factory lubricant is gone. Can somebody suggest a
replacement lubricant and source?

For what it's worth, i've read of the quality problems that some others have had
with this machine, but have had better luck myself. It makes a good shot of
espresso or two at a time -- better, less expensive, and more dependable than *$
or Tulley's. The machine has more than paid for itself by now. My biggest
complaints are that the instructions are cryptic and the automation sometimes
balky.

Thanks in advance.

you are talking about the channels in which the parts slide in the
grouphead? then vaseline. do NOT apply any vaseline to rubber parts
or seals -- not needed there anyway.

Thanks, that's easy enough. Yes, i was talking about the plastic tabs and
grooves in the grouphead, not the rubber seals.
