Which grease to use on my FA-08

Post by RCR »

I have a Roland FA-08 that I bought new 6 years ago. Recently, some of the keys have been “hanging up” and have become noisier than they used to be so I removed the key bed to see what's going on. It seems to me that the grease that's on there now feels quite tacky, in fact, downright sticky. Since the key bed is already out, I figure I may as well replace the grease. I do plan on removing the existing grease before applying anything new. So far, I see 2 types I am considering:

The first one is White Yamaha Grease for key guide and other CLP CVP, P, Motif V6274301 25061020

The second one is Blue Yamaha Grease for key guide and other points CLP CVP, P, Motif AAX90710

Has anyone out there used either of these types of grease on their FA-08? I can't find anything that is put out by Roland specifically. Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
