I will share little secret with you. This procedure goes especially well with old alu Sonnars and Triotars, but don't use it on newer lenses.
You know the disinfection liquid used in hospitals by doctors and nurses for their hands? Well, put few drops from bottom side of the lens on inner housing , avoid glass of course. It will be easier if you focus on min. distance. This liquid is cool since it makes dried grease softer and also leaves some kind of lubricant behind that helps even more. If you won't use lens for a while you might have to repeat the procedure. Ebay sellers beware - if you'll write "smooth focussing" in the description you might get negative feedback since after lens reaches the buyer it will be stiff again . _________________ P a n c o l a r t .

Would it be the same liquid as hydroalcoholic soap used to dry wash hands ? _________________ Olivier

Pancolart, I know you're not kidding me.
I kust mentioned that I didn't fix it yet and despite that, I manage to take shots with it. _________________ Olivier
