Abstract We report a novel experimental technique using total internal reflection – fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (TIR‐FRAP) to probe the velocity of a liquid near a wall with a resolution of the order of 100 nm. As an example of use, we have investigated the boundary condition of the liquid velocity during lubricated friction and studied the influence of a classical additive (stearic acid) in a base oil (hexadecane), and demonstrate that simple Newtonian fluids can develop slip at the wall.
