Doing annual maintenance and thought I would need better stuff. I'm currently using Penn precision reel grease for the gear, Cal's for washers.
What do you guys use?

Have used both cal’s and Daiwa blue space age grease. Cal’s seems to work great for both gears and drags. So if I had to choose one it would be cal’s. Daiwa grease is nice but I tend to get blue grease everywhere and cal’s seems to be just as good. Reel x oil for worm gear and AR bearing. Spool bearing oil of your choice, many good options out there
So this is the one ? if I decided to go superlube ?

That's it. I usually buy it in a big tube, but the tub will work nicely.

On moving frame parts I prefer Penn blue marine grease... I find Shimano or Cal's drag grease stays on the gears better than the thinner blue marine grease. I run my drags dry.

I use Maxima 80916 on anything that moves and Cal's on the drag washers.
I bought Penn Reel Grease, Daiwa Space Age Reel Grease and Cal's Carbon Reel Grease. I did 3 each of my reels with the different grease and marked each one to see if I can tell the difference as time goes by. However, most of the research I've done shows all three are good grease and I'm not sure if I'll be able to tell a difference unless there is something drastic.
Superlube. Get it in a smaller tube. You don't need much. True Value carries it.
Please release me,let me go.
So does Harbor Freight.
