That stuff works well, but FYI I wouldn't use it on your powerboard bushings. They are known for wearing out fast, and any wetness will attract more dirt to wear the bushings faster. Graphite is your friend there.

Wouldn't this apply to any bushing then?

Yes to metal bushings like the brass ones found on powerboards and the besttop steps, but on poly/rubber type it isn't a big deal. Also depends on the application.
