What type of grease?

I am assembling the flap handle, installing the rudder pedals, and control column.

What type of grease are you using? I have white lithium, buy nothing aviation specific.

One data point for you. My first IA told me about Fluid Film almost 20 years ago. Been using it ever since. It's natural lanolin, non-toxic. This stuff has no solvent to evaporate so it wont gum up and it lasts a long time. I see parts still wet that I lube last annual. Plus it penetrates steel and might be an even better corrosion inhibitor than lubricant. I drilled 1/8" holes in those steel tube hinges to receive the fluid film. I apply it into the littl ehole with an oil can pump.

I had never heard of it before. It's got great reviews everywhere. I ordered some, thanks.

I would recommend not lubricating anything until everything is fully painted.
