In the interests of finding products that make life easy thought I would ask what consumables people swear by , I will start with these 4 that reliably perform above and beyond and in my opinion are far superior to similar products.

INOX lubricant/penetrant that doesn't dry out and harmless to nearly everything

CARBON CONDUCTIVE GREASE great for electrical contacts protects from corrosion and lowers resistance

3452 SYNTHETIC GREASE High/low temp grease that is chemically resistant to lots of substances

LOCTITE 567 hydraulic sealant good for all hydrocarbon sealing duties as well as other liquids I use it on sump plug washers instead of replacing them it then also serves as a slight resistance to the plug backing out

 Chime in if you have products others might not know about , i realise some of these might not be available internationally

Regards,


 

Horse,
Change is easy improvement somewhat more difficult :Dr Porsche

Nickelslip anti seize grease. Messy, but stops bolts seizing up, especially header bolts as it's more heat resistant than Coppaslip.
Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups!
