On a roll today after stripping down a 959... cleaning all parts, start the build and then run out of ceramic grease!! Was hoping to complete this today, but will have to wait until my new grease arrives! ...or maybe could just use some Vaseline!?

Yes I've got some bike grease. I've alway's believed that WD-40 is taboo to use as well.

Good to know, thanks... probably a much cheaper alternative as well.

Don't do vaseline, it's petroleum-based & will do funny things to the plastic over time.
WD40 is a strange one, different people have different opinions over whether or not it hurts the plastic. I personally don't use it on plastic stuff because I've had instances where it's made the (Non-Tamiya) components "swell" & not fit any more. I only use silicone-based food-safe grease on plastics nowadays, & it's a whole lot cheaper for larger quantities by buying it as such, rather than "Soopa doopa toy car racing grease" or whatever - I get mine from RS components, but I'm sure you could get it from an engineering supplier to the food factory industry
