Re: yikes! wheel bearing grease all over my brake rotors, but why? (a bit long) 200 86

A couple things:

1) Perhaps you overpacked them...I tend to think like you though "more grease can't hurt"....but you must allow for thermal expansion and mechanical displacement.

2) I have seen some cheap, so called synthetic grease get very watery and separate...sometimes just sitting there.

3) Most greases don't mix well with other types of greases....was there other grease remaining?
