I'm not shooting WD40 or dripping oil onto a hinge, garage door part, etc, etc because it's the best. I'm doing it because I can do that a hundred times before coming close to the time and effort expenditure required to disassemble the item and lube it with grease.

Got it. So in your case, here's what I would do:

Take the can of WD-40© out of your hand and replace it with the can of CRC© White Lithium Grease. All subsequent steps are the same.

I would then hide your screwdrivers so you don't disassemble anything. Just spray it with lube. :)
