Question:

We are living in our camper full time for six months now and we are finding out the on off feature at the faucet is turning kinda rough , like its binding on to something internal. I have plumbing back roun and am thinking about putting plumbers grease on the internal parts to allow free movement for on and off. Is this OK?

If you feel confident that you are able to pull apart the Empire Faucets RV Kitchen Faucet # EM34JR to clean and grease the internal components then it is your faucet and I could not prevent you from doing it. I typically recommend using 2 Filters # AF24FR on internal faucets connections to help keep impurities out of the faucets since debris can get in the system and water supplies at most parks are typically not the cleanest.
