Been using copper slip for a long while now but wondering if it might be worth switching to something aluminium based?

Any experts in this area care to comment?

What is Coppaslip not doing, that you hope a new compound will?

Coppaslip is still the best.

"Coppaslip is still the best. "

where did you come up with that nugget ?

in some cases you would be better sticking it in dry than sticking in coppaslip - creates a nice battery with some metals ๐Ÿ˜‰

select your anti seized based on the materials in contact.

Copaslip isn't not doing anything (I think I got that right).

My old copaslip has run out so time for some new stuff. Ideal chance to get something else if it's better.

Complete first world problem I know but I'm off work today, it's raining and I'm having a lazy day.

Bikes have lots of steel/aluminium stuff. Maybe copper isn't the best. Nickle would be better if I had a ti frame, but I don't.

Never failed me yet. Lithium paste certainly has.
