Hi, Can anyone tell me where to get the Castrol BNS grease the Bible quotes as best for packing bearings like the flywheel side. Tried places like Halfords and local motorfactors with no joy. Have already got Castrol lithium based high melting point grease that is used for stuff like CV joints on cars and is black in colour. Odviously I would like to get the quoted stuff if possible.
Cheers All
Andy

Just been to Halfords to get some carb cleaner for the car and looked at the grease section.....pots of grease in white plastic containers....states on the pot what is in it... CL...LM etc. doesn`t give a clue what the different types are used for....although on here we know, how do the public know what to buy.... i asked an assistant what the difference between this one and that one was....and do you know what he said... "the price"....one was dearer than the other....he had no idea at all....i fell about laughing and walked off.......
