Help - Anyone remember RockShox Red Rum?

[Tazed]

I found a container of this stuff in a box. I've had it for probably 8 years...
Anyway, I can't recall what exactly it was for - semi-bath lube in older forks?
Still useable? It's been sealed up tight, so shouldn't have degraded through exposure to air or moisture. Only over time.
Anyone know?
Googled it, but couldn't find anything useful...
Thanks.

Spanky seems to think the "Red Rum" was just for seals, and lubing the suspension as it went back together.... same as Fox Fluid - that comes in the tiny 5L packs.... but not blue... and not fox fluid....

f*ck... bad day at work..... uber grumpy....

I have a tub of Judy butter, still old enough to use.

I'd say Redrum was just for the seals, but not 100%

i remember it had to go in the bottom of the forks?

I'm almost certain that it's 15w fork oil. But I'll double check that... BRB!

EDIT: Looks like the rockshox version of this:

Haha - still got a tub of Judy Butter too.
Still use it! Showing our age, here...
Yeah, I think the Red Rum was for the semi-bath (so, seals as well).

I'm almost certain that it's 15w fork oil. But I'll double check that... BRB!

Might be. Might have to send an email to Monza.

Nah pretty sure it was heavier than 15w. As spanky and others have said it was much like fox float fluid and used for semi bath forks, namely the parts that weren't bathed. As with all mtb brand lubes it was a common lube rebranded ... just cant remember the name of the original stuff.

20w I think. all it did was float around on top of the oil and keep the seals and bushes lubed

Torco assembly lube.

Not used for damping systems, but great for other areas of the fork/shock.
