Hi, Some time ago I bought some grease that is very bright in colour, Can't remember what brand or what it is called. Any one have any idea. Sure I will remember if I see the name or brand of it.
Regards
Krakka

You dont say what colour, but I know Penrite make a fairly bright red grease which iswater repellent .

Bright Orange grease would be "Big Foot" Grease, saw it a few years ago when in the earthmoving game,had a local private bloke that supplied oils and greases and filters and things, excellent stuff for pins and bushes. Sorry can't remember who made it or where it came from, Have a recollection it may have come from tha USA.

Cheers Rossco.

Never seen orange grease but i have red ( general purpose not for bearings) and blue ( high temp bearing/marine grade) which also has tackifier in it so it really sticks like the proverbial! oh they are by Peak Oil. Paul

It is probably Morey's Big Foot grease. As someone said it is great on excavator pins etc. The Morey's grease last twice as long as any othere grease I have used and is waterproof not water repellant like some cheaper greases are.
It is a very tacky thick grease and you need to be carefull of which grease guns you use as some cheapers and even Mcnaught won't pump it when it is cold. McNaught bdo have a gun though for cold areas K29C which will pump it.
You will probably find it at Ag dealers but maybe even Repco. I know our local repco has some of Morey's other products.
