Anti-seize on front axle

The front wheel was changed on my 2015 Street bob about 600 miles ago. Well I had to remove the wheel to install some fork slider dust covers. I checked the front axle and it still had some anti-seize on it so I just reinstalled it. The axle came out smooth with no problems. Just wondering if Im good until the wheel has to be removed again? I don't really want to take the wheel off again if it is not really necessary. Thanks again.

I put it on everything except pork. It gives it a funny ****.

put it on anything that isn't soaked in oil or fuel that is a point of different metals contacting, IE any steel screwed into aluminum, etc.
