    I want to pass this along because it is a genuine solution to something that
    we all have to deal with.
    Over the years I have tried all the usual recommendations for anti-seize and
    none of them really worked for an extended period of time, except one.

    The last recommendation, 10+ years ago, was from a marine fastener
    wholesaler.
    It is made by Bostik, "Never-Seez", Marine grade. It's good above and below
    the waterline (I have used it both places). Good to 1800 deg F so you can
    also use it on your engine fasteners.

    We all know that the acid test is stainless fasteners into aluminum. No
    problem, the stainless fasteners I put into my mast and boom 10+ years ago
    still unscrew with ease.
