Nope, never bothered. Slickoleum is plentiful, affordable, and works well. Bio-based greases can have more limited seal material compatibility, so I'd be careful before using one on everything. WPL also publishes near-zero data on its physical properties(not even CAS # for the base oil 🤦‍♂️) , which always leaves me skeptical. It being marketed as a general purpose grease makes me think it's closer to NLGI 2 vs the 1-1.5 of Slickoleum. That would almost immediately disqualify it from several areas of suspension, unless it's performance was uniquely outstanding otherwise.

Try it for assembly though. It's marketed as "safer" for skin contact, so easier for small tasks. Bio lubricants are generally regarded as having better lubricity than petroleum derived.

Yes, and it is NLGI2 or thicker. Stick with Slickoleum for suspension grease. WPLs suspension fluids are very good.
