Exclamation LUCAS HD Oil Stabilizer as Assembly Lube?

Could not find much info on it over here, so I was wondering if any of you used the Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer as an assembly lube? It says on the bottle it can work great as an assembly lube but then I wonder why do Lucas sell a specific assembly lube as well hmmmm....

Sounds like, if you happen to have it on hand, it WILL WORK, but their "assembly lube" works a little better... especially if it costs a little more....
If you have it, use it. Assembly lube is there to prevent scoring/abrasion before the new mill sees actual oil pressure. Not a Herculean job, lubrication-wise....
