Default related question

can I also ask -

should you put copper slip or similar on the backs of the wheels to aid removal or not?

at work here the guys tell me that the friction on the back face of the wheels against the hub is the primary driving force, and the pins are purely to locate the wheels in the correct place on the hub.

but I have seen posts where folk state that if you dnt add some grease or similar, then the wheel(rim) can rust on making it a SoB to remove.
