    Since the gasket in the Fantasea FP-1 is a face-to-face/compression seal, and is not subject to friction as it is closed, there is no need to lubricate it. Grease or any other form of lubrication does not help seal the housing. It only reduces friction, which is commonly present if the housing has an O-ring seal.
