Chuck,

I too am a LanaCote user but mostly for turnbuckles and rigging terminations 
that could harbor water.  I have a 20+ year old container of LanaCote that I 
usually heat up a little to reduce viscosity before applying.  That stuff is 
almost un-usable when cold.  I was able to easily disassemble Calypso’s 
turnbuckles when rebuilding the deck near the chainplates.

I would not hesitate to use LanaCote on fasteners if I ran out of Tefgel or 
more likely, could not find the Tefgel syringe.

Yes.  Screws coated with Lanacote come right out.

Maybe I'm the only lister using Lanacote?  All the other list comments seem to 
prefer TefGel.  I bought some of that, but when I had to choose, I chose 
Lanacote because of past experiences.  I can't say LanaCote is better than Tef 
Gel, cause I never did a test comparison, but a little goes a long way.

Around about 2007, I repainted my boom.  I removed all the fittings on my boom 
and sanded to bare metal, primed with etching primer, and painted it.  I used 
Lanacote on all the SS screws holding straps and blocks, etc.  In 2019, I 
decided to install Lazy Jacks and removed all the fittings to repaint the boom 
again.  It's simply a waxy lanolin and I like it.  I installed all the new SS 
fasteners using the same tub of Lanacote I purchased over eighteen years ago.  
It's good stuff.

Have you tried to remove a screw you put in 12 years ago using this stuff

I stick the stainless screws into a tub of Lanacote before assembly into 
aluminum and avoid corrosion.  The same $7 tub has served for eighteen years.  
I keep one on the boat and another at home.  It's now $12 but far cheaper than 
TefGel.
