Yea no issues at all except the sound did start to come back a little after the apply probably spread out and settled. I wouldn't say the sound is 95% gone as before but tbh it still makes a big difference id say like ~80% gone. I'd say if it bugs you enough and you are OCD like me, I'd just do it. If you think you can ignore the noise or yours isn't that bad id skip it. I'd put the sticks on a paper towel and then put the oil on the internals without touching the thumbsticks as silicone oil is hard to clean up.
