Just picked up the Rizoma mirrors I bought from Monsterparts. The installation instruction says to use "grease" ...which I assume is anti-seize... am I correct?
Now, in your experience, do you guys use anti-seize or loctite for this kind of installation?
thanks in advance,

grease is commonly used so you can reduce the friction between threads and get the proper torque spec, plus it keeps water out..
it is not antisieze or locktite.

Thank you very much He Man.
I'm gonna stop by at Ace Hardware on my way home this evening to buy grease. I have anti-seize but not loctite or grease.
