Is there a way to lubricate the fins to make combing them easier.
Mine aren't bent 90 degrees, but a lot are smushed together.

Where the lawnmower hit them. (I don't remember ever doing this, but
either the previous owner or the kid who mowed my lawn did.)


You can try spraying them with WD-40, but I doubt it will make a difference.
When we built coils a few years back, the assembly guys used metal combs
with deep (1/2" or so) teeth on them. The comb was brass and used dry.
With the deep teeth, you could sort of get under them and lift them by
tilting the handle.
