Gear Lapping Compound and Grease
We just finished making a gearbox and are wondering what kind of lapping compound and grease we should apply to the gears before using the gearbox.

If anyone can help that would be great.

and a note to Andy, we got the CEC couplings to work! It was super easy too. We ran to the broaching place and had them do the couplings for us yesterday, 1/2" keyed hole now has an Al plug and a 3/8" hole and keyway! Thanks for the help!
