Yes, it is Ok in any application where you can grease it. But you can't
grease your rigging unless you want your sails, ropes and everything else to
get covered in it.


You would feel a lot better if you used a Mil Spec style corrosion
inhibitor. These set to a waxy finish within 24 hours.
Even a BoeShield T-6 (not sure about that number) aerosol cannister
will do a serviceable job. It's this style of inhibitor that coats
the galvanized aileron control cables in the 737 you flew in recently.....
