Default Lube identity quiz.

I have these in my toolbox and I don't know what they are all suitable for except the diff lube.
Can you help?

Starting from the top please.

They are all diff lubes, except maybe the MIP one, if it is black, that is thrust race or driveshaft.

So the Losi & silicone grease is for moving parts but not diff balls and the MIP, if black, is for thrust bearings?

I've a sneaky feeling you'll find that MIP stuff to be red. It was a driveshaft joint grease wasn't it?

It would seem I'm going to have to squeeze the life out of the diff lube as I have a diff to build and I was hoping the others would be diff lube.
