MXLR Slow-Mo Damping Grease

MXLR, the brand of reigning 1:12 Spec World Champion Max Machler, has introduced a new range of damping grease called Slow-Mo.  The grease’s super smooth and ultra stable viscosity is formulated to give no fade or separation when used on KingPin front ends of 1:12 PanCars, Pro10 or F1.  Offered in 10K, 15K, 20K, 25K and 30K colour code options, Slow-Mo grease went through a lot of testing and development to reach a formula with the best consistency, correct stickiness and range between the different available hardness levels.  MXLR focused a lot to find the best micro-adhesion that the grease stays in place to provide consistent damping over the full travel range.  Thicker grease is used to slow down steering response and overall easier handling while thinner grease gives a more aggressive handling with more response.  Slow-Mo Damping Grease comes in a clear 15 gram container which keeps the grease clean and in perfect condition during storage in your RC bags.
