Copper grease! Any experience?

[crane]

Copper Kote is an anti-seize copper based paste that comes with the brush in the handle jug. Great for exhaust botls and a light coating on the shaft will ease in removeing pulleys later on.
There is a copper based gasket maker (MFG: Permatex I think) that works well for high temp applications such as replacing exhaust gaskets. I would NOT use either for any bearing lube. I use a lithium based white grease for all my bearings. STIHL sells some and I always dab a little in the needle bearing when flipping the drive sprocket.

That is anti sieze compound, not grease. I have a can or two of some super anti sieze compound which contains pure silver in a grease base, and cost over $160 for a 2oz can years ago...I picked it up for free when a jet engine mechanic cleaned out his tool boxes when he retired and said he had no need for that anymore...A little goes a long long way with that stuff.
