come on Carl you know! It was that blue paste stuff you wiped over bearings, posts, basically anything that you could then assemble and see where it rubbed etc. I made Big end bearings as an apprentice and used scalers and we all had a blue finger! Plasitigaige has sort of taken over now. You also used it on tools made for lathes etc to see if they were square etc.

Oh yeh I know the stuff your talking about now. School metalwork classes would have been the last time I saw/used that stuff, so a very long time ago now
