To support what has been said: you will spend more on rags (if you
don't get them for free) than grease! You will need a LOT of rags and
paper towels will only make the mess worse. I use what my shop uses,
which is Amsoil purple, and it's a lot cleaner than moly grease. But a
mess none the less. One cartridge does four bearings.
