Working with chromed bolts
From Crankshaft Coalition Wiki
When working with chromed bolts always use some white lithium grease on the threads to keep them from locking up or binding when tightening.
If your working with chromed bolts I always use a bit of masking tape on my wrench or socket so that I keep the finish scratch free. Just tear a small piece and put it either on the bolt or on the inside of the wrench or socket itself.
