My nice Mr MOT Man picked mine up the other week when I MOT'd my Omega, so I'll be using a bit of Kluber on them. The stickiest, thickest grease known to man!



It'll be added to the overall cost of a tin of Beanz  ...........................  ::)


 ;D ;D ;D ;D Splendid - although I can see why. :o

Why would you want to hide possible problems with brake pipes? I would want to know and rectify.... ::) ::)

I don't think hiding any problems is the issue. He wants to preserve them as long as he can. I don't blame him :y

A quick rub down with some sand paper then blather them in copper grease with a brush or for a quick job, spray them with a plenty of lithium (white) grease  :y
