Richard,
     I used to use a lanolin based product on my stainless turnbuckles on 
my boat. That is no longer available. So, what I suggest is that you go 
on line to West Marine and see what they have and recommend. Nothing is 
as finicky as the materials in a marine environment. Salt air and water 
really does a number on boat stuff. Only suggestion is that your 
stainless be marine grade.

73,
Barry
