Blue Loctite is what you want.Hi everyone.

Ok thanks is this any good Loctite 2259681 Lock ‘n’ Seal Fast Thread Lock & Sealant-5g / Easy to use/Maintains clamp Pressure loosening/Prevents Corrosion / 100% Effective, Transparent https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07BP9JPC9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Oel9EbEHT5CCABlue Loctite is what you want.
I highly recommend checking out the Blue Loctite Stick. You don't have to worry about it running, spilling or drying out. It's super easy to apply and stays where you put it.
I keep one of those in my pit-box/tool bag and I use the gel at my bench:Blue Loctite is what you want.

I've been using general purpose grease in my bearings.I keep one of those in my pit-box/tool bag and I use the gel at my bench:

Also use orange for things I don't want welded (ie use red), but want a bit more holding power than the blue gel gives me:

For grease, I use lucas red-n-tacky:

I only really use that on steel internal transmission gears and differential ring/pinions.
I use wax based lube, white lightning clean ride for everything else:

Hinge pins, spur/pinion, cvd cups/joints, axle sliders, etc. Tried the Epic Ride version and didn't care for it as it never completely dries. The dry wax lube doesn't collect dirt like wet lube/grease/oil does.
I use standard old 3-in-1 for my bearings.
