Good to hear that it's not just me. I go through so many metal shielded 1/4 x 3/16 bearings.
. . . you have Associated Green Slime for brains. And not even new Green Slime, but old gooped out Green Slime.

I clean and lube bearings quite often, mainly due to the fact my test track gets super dusty and I run quite a bit. I've come to realize I blow much less bearings after I started the clean and lube regiment. I don't have an oil preference, it's usually what the LHS has on hand either Parma or CRC that I buy.
