PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT LUCAS OIL’S RED ‘N’ TACKY SPRAY GREASE Lucas Oil’s latest offering provides lubricating qualities of grease in a convenient aerosol can BY ALLYSON JOHNSON G rease is a staple of nearly every car enthusiast’s toolbag. It helps lubricate moving surfaces with- out leaking out under the force of gravity, centrifugal action or being squeezed out under pressure. But sometimes it can be hard to get grease in the places you need it most, like hard-to-reach areas of your RV, industrial equipment or race car. Lucas Oil’s Red ‘N’ Tacky Spray Grease is your go-to product in these situations. It’s a high-quality grease in a convenient aerosol package. It’s ideal for putting grease in those harder-to-reach areas and can be used wherever a grease is the preferred lubricant. “Customers have shared with me and the employees at Lucas Oil that they would prefer to lubricate a part or piece of equipment with grease rather than a penetrating or general-pur- pose oil, but need the convenience of an aerosol can,” stated Lucas Oil Products founder, Forrest Lucas. “After many months of research, I think we created the best spray grease available on the market.” Some key benefits of this easy-to-use grease include: Rust and Corrosion Rust preventatives are a specific type of corro- sion inhibitor that is applied in order to protect against oxidation. Corrosion is a form of oxida- tion, an electrochemical process that occurs on the surface of a metal object. When a ferrous metal has been oxidized we observe loss of base material and surface deposits of iron oxides. Red ‘N’ Tacky Spray Grease specifically inhibits rust and oxidation, so you don’t have to worry about your show car getting rusty. ■ Water Resistant By preventing the water from penetrating bear- ings, water-resistant greases protect not only against corrosion, but also ensure lubrication ■ without deterioration. You don’t want your race car to experience corrosion when you’re in the staging lanes and a downpour comes. ■ Excellent Mechanical Stability We don’t have to tell you how important it is to have stability. You need to trust the products you’re putting on the things you love, like your tractors, race cars, and RVs. ■ Long Storage Life So you haven’t taken your race car out in a few months? Had the RV parked all winter? We won’t tell. Red ‘N’ Tacky Spray Grease has a long storage life, so you can keep living yours. ■ Agricultural, Automotive and Industrial Applications From your business to the racetrack, this spray grease can be used anywhere for just about anything. Lucas Oil’s Red ‘N’ Tacky Grease is a smooth, tacky grease fortified with rust and corrosion inhibitors. It has good water resistance and washout properties. It has excellent mechanical stability and storage life. It is able to withstand heavy loads for extended periods of time. It can be used in many agricultural, automotive and industrial applications. It’s fortified with a high degree of extreme pressure additives that give it a TRUE Timken load much higher than oth- er greases of this type. It’s especially good for sliding surfaces and open gears. According to Technical Director Greg Hew- gill, “Lucas Oil’s Red ‘N’ Tacky Spray Grease meets nearly every demand found with regular greases. The testing we conducted on the grease has to meet Lucas Oil’s very strict product stan- dards and people will be impressed with its ability to cling to applied surfaces, resistance to water washout, and broad temperature use range.” Keep a bottle of Red ‘N’ Tacky Spray Grease with you wherever you go, because you’ll never know when you’ll be in a bind and need to get grease to places you never thought you could.
