...Not all at the same time...

What's the ideal anti seize for:

Ally seat post (etc) in a Ti frame - currently using good old lithium grease

Ally seat post in a carbon frame - currently using carbon grip paste of some sort or other

Carbon seat post in a carbon frame - currently using carbon grip paste of some sort or another

Whatcha using and how badly did it go?

Coppaslip (Ti-prep) / carbon paste / carbon paste.

I've been using that combo for years without problem. And for a carbon seatpost in a Ti frame, also carbon paste.

A bit of a thread resurrection but I found this video interesting in a dull nerdy way.  I knew Coppaslip wasn't always ideal as an anti-seize but I've never known exactly where or what should be used as an alternative.  Assuming it is correct this video answers my questions and at the same time explains why I've actually got away with using Coppaslip for years.  Also why the only time I've had a problem with aluminium nipples it was in carbon rims
