MonacoRC O-ring booster & CV-joint booster

MonacoRC have added two more items to their very popular bearing oil line up, the new MonacoRC O-ring booster and CV-joint booster. The new MonacoRC O-ring Booster is a premium lubricating grease which has been carefully formulated to create dynamic lubrication between o-rings and metal parts. It is specially designed for use on rubber components and gaskets such as shock/diff orings that stop leaks immediately as well as allows smoother operations. The CV Joint Booster is a joint oil which helps maintain longer lasting function and performance for drive shafts. The oil will not last as long as grease therefore requires re-oilling more regularly, however it is much easier to apply, attracting much less dirt and also much smoother than grease. It’s formulated with a special additive which helps it to stick very well to the parts to maintain their best performance. The key point of using oil instead of grease is you don’t need to take the whole things apart, just clean them with degreaser, brake cleaner, let them dry and then re-oil the parts. It’s suitable for both carpet, asphalt as well as dirt racing.
