Walt what is the best (less messy) method to put that dry lubricant in? Without disassembling of course. There is some sort of grease in there.

Hmm... Graphite is messy no matter what, pull the cable out wipe it down with a rag and start feeding it back in while adding the powder to the cable between your fingers. Not nearly as bad as pro-seal
