Anybody use Vaseline? It seems to me that this stuff would be perfect.
It's odorless, translucent and doesn't leave difficult stains on your clothing. Acid free, repeals moisture, doesn't oxidize, protects from UV rays, reacts with very few materials, and stays consistent over a wide range of temperatures. Porsche even recommended the stuff for maintenance of seals and corrosion protection for wheels. I can't stand how messy typical grease and white lithium are. |

Kevin, next time you rig walk over and I will give you some "Super Lube W/ptfe" which is a food grade non-staining winch grease. Works way better than lithium in cold temp. I prefer it over all other grease products. Brian |

No kidding, only after I put that stuff on the main pins of a brand-new ASG-29 did we get the glider together with hardly any bleep-words. You can use it very sparingly and it stays on the surfaces for many weeks. Clear synthetic grease that reduces friction to close to Zero. Herb |

Amazon don't seem to carry this product in the UK.
As an alternative they offer me: 100ml Super Slik intimate sensual water based personal lubricant FREE UK Delivery I wonder if this is a suitable equivalent, as it is classified under "Garden & Outdoors". brianDG303 wrote: This: http://www.amazon.com/Super-Lube-Oz-.../dp/B000XBH9HI Or just google Super Lube Amazon.

Herb Which version are you using? *Super Lube® High Temperature Extreme Pressure Grease, *Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease, Silicone Lubricating Grease with Syncolon® (PTFE), etc?http://www.super-lube.com/products-mn-18.htm WD I use the Super Lube Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease in a tube. As stated by others, a little goes a long way. A small tube has been with me for the life of the LS8 (10 years), and I've barely made a dent in it. Since we fly throughout the year, I've had a chance to try it at a range of say -10c up to probably 35c, and it works well throughout that range. I also have a can of the their multi- purpose aerosol which is great for all sorts of stuff on the trailer. It's a dry film lubricant, so it doesn't gum up the works like "regular" grease. For example, I use it on the tracks where the ramp slides in and out of the trailer. P3 |

Same stuff as above (super lube, lithium grease, etc)? Is there any concern about the anti-corrosion treatment causing the nuts to loosen up? Thanks, WD |
