There is a joke or two in there. Make it at home silently.


Platinum converters come apart easily.

I usually grease the piston rod (more jokes haha) and then the inside of the converter barrel and the rubber stopper. TINY amounts. I use a toothpick. Then work the piston up and down (oh baby) a few times.

Be sure not to use too much grease. If the grease gets anywhere in the ink path of the feed, you will not have a good time. Silicon grease is tough to remove. Make sure NOT to touch the nib or feed with silicon grease on your hands.
