I bought some Green Grease. It's very sticky and tacky. I don't like it.
I want to use it for lawn equipment. Right now I want to use it for snowblowers. I use grease on a snowblower to
1) grease the auger to spin easier and to prevent the auger from rusting to the shaft. For this I could use regular grease.
2) grease the wheel axle to prevent the wheel from rusting to the axle. The Green Grease is so sticky I can't smooth it around the axle with my finger. It doesn't slide. For this I really want to use synthetic grease.
3) I also want to use the grease on a hex shaft that is underneath that a disk slides back and forth when shifting gears. This disk has to slide easily, it can't stick! for this, probably lithium grease would be better, but that may depend on the synthetic grease. Regular grease would work fine there but it's just easier to have one grease in the grease gun.
Are all synthetic grades as sticky as Green Grease?
What synthetic grease is not sticky and is smooth and buttery as regular grease is?
