    Marine Grease

    On our "old cars" surely some wiper linkage units have the poles corroded, as the initial "factory grease" had dried out and got washed away.
    I do not know how many of these had been serviced and some grease got reapplied to the poles.
    As the linkage system is prone to be in steady contact with the "outside", some of us will surely drive their cars in rain, or might get in "contact with water"

    how to ensure the service interval can be prolonged?
    who has fun deinstalling the unit?

    I remembered the "heavy duty" boat grease, which is "designed" to still be functional if in steady contact with water...

    just as a suggestion.... I will report back in about 1 year.....maybe 2 years....

    "Heavy-duty grease for many of the lubrication points in the maintenance of vessels. Reduces friction and wear. Extremely long-lasting lubrication properties. Excellent aging and shear stability, and resistant to hot and cold water. Water-repellent and totally impervious to saltwater. Meets the requirements of NATO Marine Specification G460. Resistant in wet environments and provides excellent sealing properties. Labeling according to DIN 51502. KPF2G-20."

    enjoy and
    best regards

    I have always found this Mercury grease to be good stuff. Holds up really well in a salt water environment and have used it on my cars in the past.

    I've been using this for years, always successfully and blue in color if you like to coordinate your accessories.
