Molybdenum Disulfide grease

Post by Rob »

The workshop manual recommends molybdenum disulfide grease for lots of things!

Is there a more common name for this as I'm finding it hard to locate some. Is it just plain only Moly grease?

Or is there something better you recommend?

KY is water based and water soluble. Vaseline would be better :thumbup:

I tried loads of things and vaseline was the only one that fixed my sticky main beam switch. Water resistant and electrically conductive - helped me in many a tight situation :oops:

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
