Really?

I was warned by a dozen Hams to never apply any form of
grease to a roller inductor precisely because of the
grit-collecting "feature".

Oh well, now that I have the can of dry spray I have found
it works great on lots of things!

There are many places I won't use the white lithium because
it can be messy that that the teflon-moly spray suits well.

Now I have two great lubricants instead of one!

I wonder if the teflon-moly would be good on tower legs?

YMMV ... ;-)
