Does the manual need an update for the new kit batch? about galileo2 HOT 6 CLOSED

That's an accurate statement, yes. I'll be working on a revised manual for the injection parts to avoid any confusion prior to full release.

Thanks for the clarification :)

And is the silicone grease still the preferred lube for the plastic parts?

from galileo2.

I'd like to know regarding which grease (or even better, a list of recommended greases) to use as well, it is not mentioned. Thanks!

EDIT: This is the silicone grease I have: https://www.liqui-moly.com/en/silicon-fett-transparent-p000364.html#3312
Is it going to be good?

Or is it better to use white lithium grease? PTFE?

from galileo2.

Yes, thats sufficient. And a very good Brand as well :-) Silicone Grease ist the safest option as its the only one which is completely inert to really all plastics.

However if you want longterm greasing its better to use Lithium/PAO Grease as silicone sticks less: options include Molykote EM-30L (my preferred for Plastik-Gears, using it also for Hifi and knitting) and SuperLube (in Europe called SyncoLube) Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease (warning they have different Lubes with slightly different Names and Properties, you want exactly this). The Superlube is the most versatile and frequently used in 3D Printing, but do not use for Linear Rails!

For Linear Rails you should use a Grease without Particles like PTFE or MOS (but can also be used for most Plastic gears) in Europe the most easy to find in reasonable bindings is Klüber Microlube Gl 261 50g (Hiwin recommended!) typically as Metabo Spare Part available in most Tool-Shops.

So this one is going to be fine: https://3do.eu/accessory/588-85g-super-lube-multi-purpose-synthetic-grease-with-syncolon-ptfe.html ?
