What flex shaft grease to use

[FloatDaBoat]

Don’t make the mistake I did using Grim Grease.
I applied the grease to the flex cable on my K&B lower unit, but didn’t run it until over a years time had passed. I ended-up melting the brush bell of the motor, as the grease had turned to a putty like consistency, which caused some serious resistance. It only took about twenty seconds to 'Smoke Test' that brushed motor.
Another lesson learned . . . .

All you have to do in HazeGry's house is simply open the cap on the grim grease to get his wife complaining from the other room!
