Lubricate Throwout Bearing?

Last year, I had my clutch/pressure plate/throwout bearing replaced. After a couple days or driving, the dreaded idle squeak that everyone complains about started again. I took it back to the dealer and it only took a couple minutes to fix the problem. The mechanic said they squirted some lubricant onto the TOB to clean the clutch dust.

Well, it's started up again. Is there an easy way to clear out the clutch dust to stop this problem again? Not sure how they got lube anywhere, but if that's an option I could try it and report my results.

I've read all of the posts on squeaky clutches but none of them have tried to fix it with such a shady approach. Also sorry for not knowing how to drive lol
