Post Anti-Seize or marine grease for threaded shaft/prop threads?
I will hopefully be installing a new threaded prop soon, what should I put on the threads before installation to make future removal as easy as possible? Permatex Anti-Seize paste, or marine grade grease?

Anti-seize...early and often!

I have gotten into the habit of removing and re-installing my threaded prop on nearly a monthly basis...just for giggles. If you wait until you have to remove the prop...you waited too long!

Put anti-seize on the shaft threads, prop threads, nut threads, bushing if you have a PD, a little on the dog's nose when he comes by to see what you're doing....be very liberal with that stuff. It's cheap insurance.

I coated mine with nev-r-seez like a japanese bukkake porn scene. Changed prop twice since then and it helps. Put that shit on until it drips off the shaft and out of the hub then spin it on. No such thing as "too much"

Then take the prop off every few months and reapply more anti seize.

LPS Nickel based anti seize. Nickel base helps prevent washout.

Never seize anti seize whatever coat the shit out of it and just take it off frequently so u don't go through the horror of it being seized on there
