I personally wouldn't use lube, will make a mess all on the inside of your pants when you put them in your pocket, or if your English your trousers
If you lubricate your key you will make a mess of both your pants and trousers...

Keyless entry means you only need to use your fingers...

Dirt and lint will always collect on a sticky key...

Front doors never need lubricating only the back door...

...I'll stop!

Well if you're always using the front door it doesn't get ceased up like in the back.

I also put a little piece of latex over my key after I lube it for protection. Remember what Cadilac said-when you stick your key in does your car turn you on? I always wondered why my key came out wet.
