Why does it do that? I hate that. It is in my grease gun now but I will move to Valvoline or a marine grade grease.Picked up my grease gun for the first time since the weather turned warm, and it clearly had Mobil 1 in it, as the red carrier oil leaked out all over my clothes, shoes and garage floor. What a mess. Replaced with a fresh tube of Valvoline synthetic.
Grease separation or oil bleed is a "thing" that all greases are subject to, at least to some extent. Some greases do it more than others.
Glad I'm not the only one. Geez does that stuff make a mess.The Mobil 1 grease leaks everywhere,
Valvoline SynPower
Hasn't dripped, moly fortified, NLGI #2 and it's readily available at Autozone. I use it in everything.
I thought it was just me, I swear I tightened every piece of my gun trying to get it to stop!I've not had another do it. The Mobil 1 grease leaks everywhere, in all temps from cold to hot. It is just a stinkin' mess. I've got Polaris and Supertech greases in other guns and they have never done it.
I'd love to hear why it is formulated the way it is. I would hope there is some big advantage that makes it worth it. Otherwise, I'd love to see them engineer this characteristic out of it.
