Definitions
1
A metallic-particle lubricant (usually copper, nickel, or aluminium-based) smeared on bolt threads, spark plugs, exhaust studs — anywhere heat, corrosion, or galling would otherwise weld the fastener in place. Stops the bolt from seizing so you can actually get it out a year later. The grey-silver smear that ends up on every mechanic's hands.
