    Has anyone used Slip Plate Graphite lubricant in their hopper? Does it contaminate the product? Seen a guy putting slip plate graphite lubricant in a hopper so material want stick. It looked dark gray to black after he rolled it on, my question is will the shippers reject loading the hopper looking gray-black?

    Some food grade places i load will reject.
    They reject for frayed bow straps, bent bows, or rusty rivets.

    Rather than risk getting the trailer rejected by applying a consumable material maybe consider getting a liner like some end-dump trailers have if you will be hauling these kinds of loads often.
