A Tip on a very good grease for outside applications
Original Message   Dec 13, 2008 10:09 am
Considering the latest rush on lubing snow throwers, I've finally decided to let the forum in on a couple top secret lubrications that I use.

These two products are for industrial applications such as exposed chains, cables, shafts, bushings etc.  It's black & very tacky but being in a spray can, goes on as easy as can be.  It sticks to stuff like sh!t on a blanket and lasts like nothing else.   I didn't buy this stuff.  I have a friend that worked at a pulp mill who had a supply of  it.  So you might have to do some searching on the INTERNET to track it down. 

I like it primarily because I can spray it on the chains inside the chassis.  I cover the friction drive surfaces with a rag and with the straw on the nozzle, I can direct the spray closely and accurately on the chain only, not all over the inside of the chassis.  If you can find this stuff, you'll like it.

FYI, the Keystone doesn't seem to be easily obtained, but the Crown is available at acehardwareoutlet.com for 7.68 a can.
A place called toolfetch has it for  $79 a case, or  6.58 a can but seems to sell cases only.

I think I'll write both names down for the next time I am near my semi-local industrial hardware store.

Who the hell let all the morning people run things?
