I like red tacky greases in the summer and moly grease in the winter. The tacky grease seems to hold really well on pto shafts and U joints in the heat. the Moly seems to retain it's flexibility better in the winter.
We used to use Mystic JT6 and Mystic Moly grease in the winter. After finding out that Hugo Chavez owned Citgo and Mystic greases, I couldn't buy his products in America with a clear conscience. I know that one ranch in CO dropping his products won't make any difference to him, but after hearing his comments toward and about our country, it does to me. Mystic has taken all reference to being owned by Citgo off their packaging.
I started on a search for a new grease and I found the Valvoline Crimson to be just as good and cheaper. I honestly can't tell the difference, it is just as red and just as tacky. I've also heard that the Lucas red grease is very good and tacky, but much more expensive. I find it curious that all red tacky greases are high heat and the exact same color, I mean identical, does any one else find that a little bit strange?
I wonder if there is one processing plant in Houston making red grease, and putting the same product in different packages and laughing at all of us saying that this red grease is so much better than that red grease?
