Was looking for this lubricant to pour down my steering cable/conduit.

The idea is that it runs freely at first then, after a few minutes, a solvent evaporates, leaving the lubricant thicker and stuck to the wire.

Eventually called Wurth UK, who said they dont have any stockists/dealers in the UK, and sold it all from their office/plant.

£12+ per tin, plus postage. 2 tins £30 delivered to manchester.

Walked into the boatyard in Lagos this afternoon - there it is on the shelves at 14 euros per tin.

2 tins = £20 in a shop in Portugal, (21% VAT), where I wanted it!!!

My fault for not looking in the first place I guess
