    An old mechanic that used to let me help him in his shop when I was younger, used Dow Corning molykote for brake jobs and anything else requiring grease. Taught me to treat it like gold.

    Do y’all use this stuff ?

    I’m not generally real particular about my grease. I usually just grab something synthetic and on sale depending on the application. I got pounced on by the tool guys on another forum for packing ratchets with white lithium when I didn’t have anything else handy. You would have thought I slapped their mother or something.
