Does anyone use a certain type of grease for the pinion and drive gear metal to metal lubrication?

Hi Mike,

This has been covered just recently about; it's about nine posts down under (Gear box lubrication and O-ring grease!!!) Most people use a PTFE based grease because it is more water proof.

Like that? Sorry what I ment was regular wheel bearing grease like you use on your car, if you have synthetic thats even better, but the regular stuff is just fine. There is no way it is going to wash out of one of these machines at 430 rpms.
