How to repair the seat belt buckle

Model: Volvo V50 MK 1 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Checks and maintenance

How to repair the seat belt buckle that doesn't release? We see it on this Volvo V50: The problem is the dust that accumulates inside the mechanism that holds the buckle, and that can be repaired with a good spray of lubricating oil. The YouTuber advises against the classic WD-40 and instead recommends another product, the Xado-Verylube, which can be found on xado.co.uk/chemicals-and-fluids: a 320 ml package costs £24.90 (unfortunately, there is no information on shipping costs). We spray it inside and then work the buckle; by putting it in and taking it out many times in a row, we will clean the mechanism and it will start working again.
