I couldn't find it in my area and haven't had time to venture to the bigger stores yet. But once it all broke free and started moving, it's stayed nice and smooth. So I don't think I need it, but I'm going to get it anyway..
I do want to keep it cleaned, probably annually, and work off old oil and grease etc.
