color and consistency of EZ Lube gear grease

[charon]

Fellow Bachmannians,
When the first Bachmann shay came out, I bought one, and then went to my local auto supply store and bought an inexpensive jar of lithium grease.  Since then I have purchased the Bachmann climax, heisler and two more shays.  Used the same grease on all of them and they all work fine today.
Happy Bachmanning!

I must say that I have had really good luck so far with all scales of my Bachmann steam loco's. On the other hand, I must agree that the EZ LUBE grease is nothing to write home about. Water would be as good as it is. All I am going to say is that another brand of high quality / super sticky PLASTIC COMPATIBLE grease is what I use on my loco's. It would not be my first choice to use lithium grease on my loco's. Use the product you like if you think it works. Gman
