Yeah, I learned the 'put the spinner on the hub trick' eventually, but
sometimes in the heat of battle you forget. And, yeah, putting the
grease on the wheel hub is the way to go, then take the wheel off and on
a couple times to distribute it (wipe off any excess).
I have a name for the shirts with the circular grease stain: 'rags.'

I struggled with this quandry for years (partly because I got
tired of having all my work clothes having a circular stain on
them). As noted, anti-seize is intended for and most useful
for threads where grease would get cooked off, like spark
plugs; it's not intended to be a good lubricant, even though,
like most greases, it's oil with a thickener (moly, lithium,
etc.). I believe even the best splined hubs will have a
teensy bit of ratchet-like movement, and since the hubs don't
get all that hot grease would be the better lubricant. I
usually use wheel bearing grease, as it's thicker, designed
for warm applications and persistent.<br>
