My top hinges are squeaking like crazy, is there a procedure for lubricating them? And if so, what product is recommended? TIA

Not that I am aware of. In other posts, I shared that you should lubricate the hinges with some type of silicone grease. Others seem to agree with me.

I have a penetrating grease, Castle Endura is the brand name, which supposedly goes in like an oil and then thickens up. I used it in the spring and put the top halfway down and just sprayed every joint I could reach. Seemed to help the moaning that I was getting in the last foot or so of travel when closing.
