As Glenn suggests, if it works for you, then keep using it, Steve, but a word of warning: I gave up using Castrol LM in wheel-bearings many, many years ago, because it suffered VERY badly from oil separation. This is bad news for the brakes in ancient vehicles using felt seals, and probably, for the diaphragm in camera lenses! I found that with most general purpose automotive Lithium greases you can see free oil running on the surface if you take the lid off in the store. I would check yours, before your next lens, particularly if you've had it a year or two. |
