Charlie,
For what its worth; some bicycle folks use beeswax, lubricates on the

My buddy Joseph is ready to lace new rims onto his Sears Allstate (Puch)

hubs and is uncertain (as am I) as to what should be used to lube the
stainless steel spokes with during assembly. Buchanan's sent me two
little bottles of "special" lube for my s.s spokes and nipples, but he
will be using nickle plated brass nipples. Should he use motor oil,
bearing grease, anti-seize, or? What do y'all use?
