Can anyone recommend a replacement damper fluid for the trough on a SME
III, used with an ATOC9 MC cartridge? It's completely evaporated/spilled
from one I've just bought.

I've had a look through the forums and seen STP, but I'd like something
that's close to the original in terms of evaporation/viscosity, and
doesn't cost the 40UKP that ebay seems to demand for the genuine
article. UK supplier would be good.

Thanks, Rob

I am using an ATOC9 with an SME 3009ii arm, and it needs no damping,
I've checked the transient response around the arm resonance, and
there is no overshoot. I can't see that the iii will be any different
in this regard.
