well, about not mixing greases, you've seen that beat up old toothbrush i use? yup, that one. well, it has probably 20 different kinds of greases on it!
seriously, though. i was trying a bunch of different greases over the summer. some of these were pretty expensive. now i'm back to my tried and true blue yamaha engine grease for general purpose stuff. what can i say? dirt cheap, stays blue forever so i can identify it easily, even years down the line. for drag washers, i'm still using cal's. for bearings, i bounce back and forth between extreme reel + and corrosion x. i think it does not matter in most applications, as long as you keep your spool bearings cleaned and lubed. i am resigned to the fact that there will never be a perfect spool bearing solution................
