Read a few articles now that steer you away from Weldtite Lithium grease for using as anti seize, which is what it states on the tin bizzarly! Apparrently drys out and potentialy allows coldwelding or seizing dependent on where you put it.

Looking at Finish Line assembly grease now for bolt threads/ BB threads etc, but anyone got any recommendations or favourites they use?? Auto stuff looks a lot cheaper!!

Ta guys :D

A.A.S Juice- says on the tub 'for tight nuts', for threads
Weldtite lithium for bearing applications.

I guess its a bit foolish as I have read on many forums that its exactly the same grease thats used in the car industry, just that its 5 times more expensive for cyclist specific packaging! Ouch
