My Quantum baitcaster has a ceramic drag. When servicing it do you grease the drag like conventional drag materials, or should the drag be dry?

My understanding is that ceramic drags like carbon ones can be used dry or very lightly greased with drag grease.

Email the Reel Guy.. Ad on the right of the page.
His reputation and knowledge is next to none...
 I have had several questions like this with a few reels when repairing and upgrading to carbon drags etc over the yrs.

His excellent supply of parts and instruction of install, if oil  or grease, dry whatever.
