You do it as a cable prep during the installation--not after. Put some grease on your fingers and working it along the exposed cable working it into the filaments. Then, run the cable inside the housing moving it back and forth a few times. Take the cable out of the housing and gently wipe it down with a soft cloth. Then, install cable and housing.
