Re: Best grease for gears?

One thing we have used in open gearboxes that are already on the robot at competition is Loctite silicone spray lubricant. It goes on clear and doesn't come off in chunks like the white lithium can if you don't get the amount just right (not to put down the lithium because we do use it as well). Carl up there can attest to its effectiveness.
