Oiling Throttle cables

With the track day coming up this weekend, I was getting a little worried about how my throttle doesn't snap back. It rolls back fine, but its not a definite 'snap'.

So what do you use to oil your cables? Plastic bag over the nipple? Or the proper tool?

Not expensive, and speeds up the process somewhat.
