Irob Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 Yes i pondered the same the other year. I couldnt get my head around water soluble stern tube grease and played with the idea that copperslip or graphite based grease would likely keep the shaft and bearing in better condition. So for a tin of graphite grease i had in my garage, i mixed it, alternating topping up the greaser, with standard grease. Finally i just resorted to the time tested standard stuff for the job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
