No offence taken, takes more than that to offend me lol
I see copperslip regularly on caliper bolts but the idiots then don't put it on the sliding parts! another classic is people putting it on bleed nipples then wonder why they still have slightly spongy brakes! I once went on a course where they demonstrated the torque difference on wheel studs with & without copper grease, the difference was a staggering 15NM might not seem a lot but at one time Porsche used to recommend it!!! Might have got away with it but I wouldn't fancy driving a performance car where the wheels aren't tight!! :eek
