Randy - Xe-Kote does have a very small amount of a hard wax lubricant, intended for lubricating film. But it would be totally ineffective as a bearing lubricant. If you use Xe-Kote as a degreaser, be sure to relubricate the bearing, even if you intend to replace it within a few days. Without lube, the bearing could seize very quickly and unexpectedly.

Regal loves that WD-40. Do yourself a favor and throw that shit out of your booth like I did.
