Screwing: Everyone has his own approach and preferred method. For those of you who don’t often get the opportunity to do it, slow and steady might be just the ticket. You know – you want to savor it – no need for speed. But, some of you are regular screwing machines; day in, day out power-screwers. Well, for all the guys out there who are just plain worn out and frankly, drained from screwing their brains out, I have three words for you: call me sometime FastCap Screw Wax.
When you’ve reached the point that your foremost thought is, “If I gotta screw one more f&$%^*g…”, then it’s time to change up your game. FastCap Screw Wax is perfect for any job involving major and repetitive screwing. It lubricates pins, bolts screws and ummm…other items that need to penetrate wood and…stuff. It also reduces torque for a much smoother…insertion experience. And, less torque means less noise. Screw away to your heart’s content without disturbing the neighbors, (or the kids!)

Happy screwing – I’m off in search of a cold shower and a cigarette.

The only concern with using other stuff for screw lubricant is that it might rust the screw, which can be unsightly. The guys that I worked with used to have a tube of “screw giz” (pronounce that with a hard G), which I wasn’t ever sure exactly what it was (they said that you don’t want to know). I’ve always been happy with Fastcap stuff, and I’m sure they did a good job with this.
Bee’s wax and tallow are other more traditional lubes that are used for this sort of thing.
Plain old bar of soap works too. Might not be engineered specifically for the task, but $0.99 will get you a bar big enough to drive a brazillian screws. I use that trick all the time, especially for the tiny ones that strip their heads if you so much as look at the funny.
