    Dennis?

    I have a couple Curado 200 B's that the drags seem a little "sticky" they kind of stutter, and are not smooth like they were. Any suggestions? What kind of grease and how much, or do I just need new drag washers? Thanks

    I use shimano drag grease. Any drag grease will work, take your drag washer out (it is a cloth feeling washer) and then take a small dab of drag grease and "work" it in to the washer with your fingers. Once you work it in wipe the excess grease off. If you don't, then you will eventually have an IAR bearing failure! When you tighten your drag it will squeeze this excess grease into your IAR bearing and it will make your reel go backwards!. It just sounds like it is a little dry and should be smooth again. Any damage to the cloth like washer we can replace the washer. I am assuming you know where the drag washer is at?

    If you aren't in a big hurry, I can put some in a container and mail down to you. Probably take 2 days.
