you can buy specific stuff (big bends nut sauce etc) but bit of vaseline/petroleum jelly will do just as good a job

i guess the only wayto complete the bad pun is by adding that Nut Sauce is the best nut lube.

Can someone explain to me why this is necessary or recommended? Thanks.

'cause if you don't have a locking nut, when you're tuning or using your trem, the string is pulled through the nut slots. It can get caught up, making tuning more difficult, or preventing a correct return to pitch
