No, but I've yet to have a wheel nut I couldn't remove roadside. I find a 24" breaker bar with me standing on it doesn't out up a long fight....(I'm of the build you'd expect in an 80s All Black front row).Doesnt sound very portable for road side repairs though...
To complicate it further, you also get red rubber grease, designed for sliders inside a rubber sleeve as it does not degrade the rubber.Looking on line , it seems to be a silicone grease that is recommended for slider pins , so I might be wrong about the ceramic grease . I’ll let someone else answer that one .
I though Copperslip was the recommended grease for exactly this purpose. It's the ability not to melt from heat that makes it useful on brake pads etc.
