Home and shop mechanics who want one clean, waterproof grease for bearings, threads and seals.
Crystal Grease is a clear, odourless bike grease made for riders and mechanics who want performance without the mess. An aluminium based thickener makes it 100% waterproof by White Lightning's account, so it suits wet road rides and stream crossings on the mountain bike.
Premium hydro-treated base oils give smooth bearing lubrication and long life. It will not attack gaskets, seals or carbon fibre, and it will not stain painted surfaces. Because it is clear, a mechanic can spot wear and contaminant particles in it at a glance. It is also non-toxic and biodegradable.

Workshop tip
Clean old grease out before repacking. Mixing greases is not something White Lightning covers on its page, so a clean start is the safe habit.
