That's what some dealers/factories are using for hinges.
PS: some may prefer not to spray grease on stoppers as it may become easier to close and open doors, but least it leaves no rust and squeaking
Ah no... Its residue of fecking copper grease. It got wiped off the other day...

Like you I thought it was rust, nope!

Cheers though...

As you said its been liberal sprayed with lithium grease and excess wiped off. Both sides :thumbup:
