I use Mobil 1 grease to lube the chassis on my trucks. In warm weather, some oils will separate from the grease and run out of the bottom of the grease gun (red in color). Almost every grease I have ever used does this - some more than others. I would not worry about it. I do not use Mobil 1 to grease the bearings on my boat trailer. Instead, I use a light blue marine grease I get from NAPA. Good stuff.

Yes, it does that for some reason.

I've been using M1 grease for at least 10 years now and haven't lost a bearing in that time... if a bit of red juice means extra protection, it's fine with me

Don't get it on your vinyl. It won't come off!
