Not Ranked
In the mid-1990's I had an "eventful" couple of wheel removals. I may have used anti-seize too sparingly.
Since then, I've lathered on the anti-seize like butter. I apply it to all mated surfaces. If any excess appears when I mount the wheel, a rag or paper towel soaked in mineral spirits wipes it off easily. I haven't fought with any wheel removals since.
I occasionally drift the car. I spin the tires frequently. I still have the same 19 year old pins on the front hubs. The rear pins aren't as old because I installed new cast iron uprights, hubs and pins about 6 years ago. None of my pins indicate torque issues or stress.
FWIW.
