Default sticky ignition key

I've read many of the articles on the forum about the sticky key problem. The one about removing the ignition switch and some of it's internal parts seemed like a good answer to the problem. Before doing this, I was wondering if anyone has tried to squirt some graphite "Lock-Eze" into the key opening to see if it would free up any of the internals. That stuff is pretty slick after the liquid carrier evaporates off and leaves just the graphite coating the inside of the lock, or switch. I tried this on a .22 rimfire target rifle trigger and it made the trigger feel like a smooth piece of glass. Just wondered if anyone has tried it on the XF ignition switch and key. I'd like to hear everyone's opinion or experience with this.

Jim
