Hi Jim, Could you elaborate on what items you were using the SuperLube and can you speculate what happened to it?

Took me forever to clean it off, I have never used it since.

Teflon grease is wax-based, so safe on either. Star Brite has a tub of Teflon grease for not too stupid a price. http://www.starbrite.com/item/white-ptef-lubricant Jim Watts Paradigm Shift C&C 35 Mk III Victoria, BC On 9 April 2014 09:29, Della Barba, Joe < joe.della.ba...@ssa.gov > wrote: <blockquote> On the 35 there is no bearing.
