I just got a package with two cans of Superlube synthetic grease was just over $10 each, plus shipping. 400 grams/.88 pounds of translucent slippery goodness.
Shipping (Fedex) was $9.38 for two cans, a 100 count box of gloves and two boxes of *bubble gum. The order arrived in two days. Betty Mills sells workplace cleaning, safety and other industrial supplies.
The gum was part of their snack rewards for making an order.
I bought one of those 2 years ago. If used only on flashlights, it's definitely a lifetime supply. I haven't even dented mine and I use it to lube door hinges, flashlights, and various other things
Thanks for making me aware of this! I was just at my local hardware store looking for some type of lubricant in grease form, but I couldn't find anything that would work outside of automotive uses. I will place up on order on Amazon for a tube of this.
Anybody tried synthetic bike lube? I’ve got a huge tub of synthetic grease and the consistency is very much on a par with the 1g tub of Yazel I picked up from DX.
I use a bike grease on mine, its a lithium based high melting point tube that cost as close to nothing and works fine on all my lights. I can’t say it would be the best thing ever but it certainly gets the job done.
