My bother in law is a millwright and at his place of employment a salesman sold him the supposed "ultimate quality grease" (and I've forgotten the brand name) for about $20 a tube. He brought it to me to test on my metal to metal tester apparatus. He was not pleased to find out that the $20 a tube grease had less metal to metal protection than the cheapest grease at about $3 a tube that I was using on my machinery. The best grease I've come across I have no name of but you can't wipe it off metal or your hands or it will not wash out of your clothes let alone get pressure washed off your equipment.
