What works for my Olympus housing is to put a few dabs of grease into a ziplock bag and smear it around. Then I put in the o-ring and smear it around. As long as you don't introduce any grit or hairs into the ziplock bag, you can keep using it time after time. The tiny tube Olympus supplied has lasted hundreds of dives. You may or may not need the special silicone grease. Use the ziplock bag trick and you'll probably never have to figure it out.Spoon:is there special silicone grease? my pack came with a small tube. if that runs out can i use the silicone grease i use for my dive gear?
