Default Changing Slip Ons

I am getting ready to shange my exhaust with some slip ons. At one time I think I read on the forum about something to put on the end of the head pipe that will make the slip ons go on easier.

Can anyone tell me what that would be?

never thought of that but sounds good , if you rub anti freeze between your fingers it is very slippery , but just have to ask do you use it straight or mix 50/50

They're not that hard to put on. Getting the old ones off is harder. Use WD40.
