If you have flown on a turboprop you likely been on a plane powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6.

I have three Pratt and Whitney engines that I'm responsible for, FT4C-3F.
2 are installed one is an uninstalled spare, 58 MW each. They like to break the bolts that connect the free turbine section.
They've all got a little milk of magnesia on them.
I asked the factory rep a while back if he'd ever heard about using it, he said no but later told me that he found out others in the company had.
