Graphite lock lubicant is what I have used in my Saab 900's since 97. Because the ignition lock is located low between the seats in a depression, it collects alot of dirt. I also like to take my Saab on dirt roads in the desert where dust is a big problem. This has not helped my ignition switch at all. Graphite lube comes it 2 main forms. A powder and powder suspended in an evaporating transport fluid. The liquid form is what I have used. I put a small amount in the key slot and then insert / remove the key numerous times to coat the pins then rotate the lock a few times. I then continue to insert / remove the key wiping it each time to remove some the dirt that the fluid has loosened up. Good luck and happy driving. Jim
