Hi,
I have a slightly off topic question but I think the expertise I need is in this group. I am wondering whether to use oil or grease for a certain problem. I have a tube of metal (with a square crossection with 1 1/2 inch sides) that slides into another slightly larger tube and they need to come apart easily. In general, what types situations should be lubricated with oil and which with grease? The oil I have available would be 3in1 and the grease would be vasiline.
Thanks,
