I have one of the big 8oz jars of this same anti-seize Permatex 80078 Anti-Seize Lubricant with Brush Top Bottle, 8 oz. that I have used for several years on all manner of projects, but recently I needed to change some spark plugs in a confined space in a boat and I wanted to make sure that I was able to do the job without making any extra mess.When I was buying the spark plugs I saw these small tubes listed as “also purchased” items and the light went off. This way rather than bringing the big jar with a brush on lid into the boat or trying to pre-lube the plugs and not touch anything on the way in I could sit down in the engine compartment and dab a little on the threads right as I was installing them.No mess at all, and after use I was able to thread the cap back on and put it back in my jacket pocket so I didn’t have to set it down anywhere and risk a mess or worse knocking it into someplace in the bilge that would be a pain to get to it.Just a dab on the threads will ensure when I need to remove the plugs again from the aluminum head that there wont be a problem. It also works great on a lot of other marine and automotive fasteners and tight fit areas where the use of anti-seize could be tolerated. If you are considering this nickle formula as compared to the copper formulas they consider the copper to be a general purpose and the nickle formulas to have a higher heat tolerance in addition to being able to use on metals that should not be allowed to come into prolonged contact with copper. I prefer to just have this formula on hand.The one ounce tube is probably enough to last you a very long time if you don’t often have a need for it, I do quite a bit of this type of work and I have probably only used half of the 8oz jar I have in the last half a dozen years so for most people this is the one you want to get, but I do like having both as the brush comes in very handy for applying to larger surfaces.If you are buying this to use on spark plugs also consider a dielectric grease to put in the ends of the boots like this one Permatex 81150 Dielectric Tune-Up Grease, .33 oz Tube or a bigger tube if you do the job more frequently.

I bought this to lubricate boat snaps. It is quite thick and very creasy. I think it is a great lubricant but I was unprepared for its feel.

It’s anti-seize, not sure what else to expect.Make sure if you do get it on your hands, have a old rag to clean it off or it will just get everywhere. Very hard to get off clothes too.I was using this while I was doing a exhaust job on my car. Hopefully since I put this pretty much on every nut and bolt for the heat shields and etc. that it will come off easier next time I need to do anything.Had it on the header studs, heat shield bolts, exhaust flange bolts, turbo studs, up pipe. Surprisingly there was no smoke on the first drive even though it was in contact with pretty much the hottest parts on the car.

I give it just under 4 stars being the Brush Top version allows you to get into the, hard to reach, areas. Plus it seemed like it would continue to ooze-out after pressure was released. Still a good product though.

Anti-seize seems to work as advertised. Be sure to wear gloves and have a rag or paper towel close by. Like most anti-seize, it gets all over everything.

Exhaust bolts are notorious for seizing and this stuff is a must. I use it on all the exhaust bolts except the ones that bolt into the head. I also use it on spark plugs and 02 sensors. Works great.

I don’t like to drive all over town wasting fuel looking for items, I ordered and received quickly. Use sparingly and don’t forget paper towels.
