Permatex 80078 Anti-Seize Lubricant with Brush Top Bottle, 8 oz.

Good bottle of anti seize. Its nice having the brush built into the cap to make it easy to apply. However, since the brush sticks out, it dips deep into the bottle. Imagine something like that on a peanut butter jar, it will dunk down and coat way up on the brush, so the brush it really coated in the anti seize when you only want a small amount on the brush. Its somewhat hard to wipe the excess near the lid without it making a mess. Regardless the brush shaft has a lot of anti seize, no matter how hard you try to wipe, then wherever you try to apply might get excess where you dont intend. Its also like glitter, it gets everywhere and its a pain to get off. Brake cleaner helps remove it, but it is expensive. I have not tried degreasers or other solvents. It is a large bottle, more than anyone would need for one car, one brake job. Would last the lifetime of the car, probably the lifetime of 20 cars. Mechanics might run out of this bottle, but others would never use up all of it. I have seen some people try and use this as brake grease, but I do not recommend that at all. Only where you want two faces to not seize together from rusting, aka anti seize. The best place is the brake rotor to the hub surface. Some might apply a little to the outside rotor surface to prevent wheels from seizing, but I do not. I would not recommend using for the pad ears, clips, caliper slide pins, or other recommended grease locations. I am not sure of other common locations to use this, but rotors are the main one I am sure.

My last same-sized container anti-seize lasting me 30 years (home use), so my children will finish this one. About it: It's silver in color, 8-oz. container (a bunch), -65F - 1600F, Anti-Seize, -Corrosion and -Galling; has Lid Brush; label indicates "Made in USA". Specific Use: Ease assembly and disassembly of hardware which experience extreme temperatures and/or corrosive conditions. I've used this routinely, and sparingly for it does not take much - just a light swipe on threads, mating surfaces etc. Most of my last container went to lubricating boat and boat engine components for very good saltwater corrosion prevention. A general caution is: not apply to business end of sparkplug, O2 sensor etc (lightly on threads/sealing surface only) - else could impact component performance (never seen it happen lol). *UPDATE: I visited Permatex website - wished I'd done so earlier ...
