Just saw a pretty useful troubleshooting guide on fixing sticky luggage wheels. Seems like the most common culprits are hair, dirt, and hardened grease. The guide recommended a few things from simply wiping down the wheels with a damp cloth to using a lubricant like WD-40 or silicone spray after a good cleaning.
Honestly, I've always just dealt with the frustration of a dragging suitcase, never actually trying to fix it. This makes me wonder, how often do peopel actually maintain their luggage wheels? Is it one of those things we only think about when it's actively causing a problem, or do some of you proactively clean and lubricate them regularly? I'm curious about what methods people have found most effective and how often they perform this kind of maintenance. Any particular brands of lubricant that seem to work wonders?
