any HD Truck shop has this in a huge can, also check NAPA, you may
check the auto parts stores also in their Chemical & Adhesives
asile. you may want to consult the MSDS Sheet in case anyone has a
chemical allergy.

Hey guys
Name here is Bob VE1BFX just an FYI for you , before you go and
put up the antenna there is a wonderful product called 'Never Sieze" I
forget who makes it , but let me tell you, if you coat all of the Nuts
and screws you will be able to unfasten them years later. I work
for Canadian coast guard and it has bee a god send, keeps you from
having to hack saw off nuts .
ohby the way teh antenna should be broad enough for your repeater
