Some grease is less waterproof than others. Check the container. You want the most waterproof you can get.

Good Evening Richard, You might also consider Mobil 28. It is a high tech multi temperature grease especially developed for aviation use. I have been using it for the last fifteen years with excellent results. In any case, I would stick with greases specifically recommended by the manufacturers for their equipment.

My main concern was that since I'm using a cleaner/degreaser this weekend to wash my gear, I wanted to also go back afterwards and provide grease or lubrication. I've looked at the Zerk fittings and know that when I clean - I'd want to re-lube. Anyway - its been great to get so many thoughts and recommendations on how to help or move forward. I'm working now to line up the grease type and gun to get this done. Thanks - and I appreciate the help.
