Hi all,

I took my door latches out of my doors on a 69 coupe.

I sandblasted them, soaked them and got out all the grit and crud.

Before I put them back in, what type of grease should I use on them?

do I coat most of it to get lube inside ?

What tricks can you tell me.

Thanks,

Joe

White lithium grease should work well.
