I was doing some preventative maintenance on my fishing boat trailer and have had issues getting the right seal for it, I guess it’s hard to find, go figure. Anyway, the previous owner was very meticulous with maintenance and included a number of extra parts with the boat, including an extra hub, greased and ready to go. The grease on that hub is blue, so I figure it’s blue marine grease. I picked up a new tube of marine/offroad grease at Tractor Supply the other day and packed my new bearings with it, planning to use it on the new hub. After having issues finding an evidently hard to find seal, I was considering putting the spare hub on and using it until I get this hub rebuilt. The Tractor Supply Marine grease is a different color, more of a brownish red color, also the grease in my gun is automotive wheel bearing grease, a reddish color. Can the blue marine grease that is in the spare hub mix with the different color marine grease or the automotive grease in the gun? I’m considering replacing the grease in the gun with the marine grease and using that on everything I have, which is trailers, boats, and mowers.
