Making fluid grease Filling burman CP gearbox

After recently fitting new layshaft bushes and a new final drive sleeve gear to my Burman CP gearbox, I need to top up the lubricant after its settled in just nicely. These type of boxes use a Fluid Grease, and being a complete skinflint, I learned how to make my own many years ago.

Interesting, never had to use fluidised grease. If you want to use those old grease niples without mess, but a piece of clean cloth between them and the grease gun and you find the grease goes through the cloth but does not spill.

this would be good for a ariel VB600 ? (1950)

Doesn't that interfere with the grease's properties, though? The vast majority of semi-liquid greases NLGI 0, NLGI 00, etc tend to be sold by the bucket, so that fact alone makes them very cost ineffective for people like me. Would a home-liquidized grease be usable for power tools like drills and angle grinders?

Thank you

Gear oil? (Mixed Mobil 1 grease and 75-90 gear oil of the same brand for the 4x6 bandsaw.)
