Copper Slip: What does it look like?

[Roadsport06]

Start the build today and Halfords said that their home brand copper grease (big tub and copper coloured grease) was the stuff. It only mentions its use for brakes. Is this the stuff that I need to put on many of the nuts?

[Shaun_E]

Yes that's the stuff. Often put on the back of brake pads to stop squealing (note not on the friction side as one hapless member did ). Smear a little bit on bolts, bushes, etc. to make sure they don't seize.

Don't use too much, as when it gets warm/hot it thins and drips (brakes )

In answer to your question, "what does it look like?" it was once described to me as............. looking like sh1t with a nice metallic finish 😬

Brent, I think BL used to paint their cars in it in the 70s

 

Very good stuff. I recently got some in an aerosol for £3, nice and handy.

BOSS, that was the same sh1t but just without the nice metallic finish. 😬
