What are you using for grease
 

A lot of people use their car brand. I understand that. Getting back into the hobby. What off the shelf stuff do you use? There was an old thread years ago about this, couldn’t dig it up. Copper grease, blue/pink/green/gold. Use to be just red and tacky.

Vrp gear honey grease, its very thick, I use it for diffs mostly.
losi black grease is also good.

From a machinist I got some high grade white bearing grease.

Grease for what purpose?

This is the question.....

Hello Roelof,

Can You share the Brand?

For me, the best Grease for Ring and Pinion is Kyosho Ring Gear Grease (Part No. 96126). Have You try this Roelof?

Cheers.. :)

I do not know a brand but with some search there are some several brands to find like this one:
Griffon | Product

Multi purpose grease.

Really any grease for machines and gears will do, lots to choose from - I think people are overthinking this but hey, you spend your own money. Maintenance is key, no magic grease will keep an unmaintained car healthy.

With that out of the way, I use a red Total Moly grease in a tube (super cheap!) for closed gearboxes, and some grease in a spray-can for open type gears (for easy access).

Basically thats it: "any grease is better than no grease".

for any purpose. What do you use on gears, or rings. A lot of companies are now selling copper grease.

Gold grease has been known for better metal to metal wear. Diffs last longer. TLR or J&T sells it.

That Kyosho stuff is good. I remember it from my K car days.
In the past I always used AE green slime for O rings, then the black stealth grease for gears.

As of now I use the XTR stuff. They have 3 different grease, a copper base, a lithium, and not sure on the o ring grease but they all work well.

This is basic preventive maintenance that ensures good and reliable performance. When I do a full big event prep I pull all my out drives and re grease all of them. I am already changing the diff fluids so its just a little more time and worth it. When it comes to the ring and pinion don't over do it.

been looking at bringing some in house for sale. just need to find stuff I like enough.

SKF LGWA 2/1 if you could find it. Possibly the best all round grease out there. I also tend to use Mobil Polyrex EM for bearings.
Molykote has some great graphite grease as well.

Protek Premier White Grease for ring and pinion gears for the diff and Protek Premier Blue Oring Grease for shock orings. As for CVD's and universals on the driveshafts I use graphite spray because I don't want a wet lubricant attracting dust and dirt to those areas. The graphite spray dries very quickly and being a dry lubricant it doesn't attract dirt at all. Hasn't failed me yet.
