Seed Lubricant
Ezee Glide Plus
Talc+Graphite Mix
821-069C jug, 5 gallons (19 liters)
Recommended usage:
For clean seeds other than cotton, milo and sunflower,
sprinkle:
one cup of Ezee Glide Plus per 4 bushels or 4 units
(170 ml per 100 liters) of seed.
For cotton, milo and sunflower, double the application to
one cup per 2 bu or
335 ml per 100 liters.
Adjust this rate as necessary so all seeds become
coated while avoiding an accumulation of lubricant in the
bottom of the hopper.
For seed with excessive treatment, or for humid planting
environments, increase the rate as needed for smooth
meter operation.

Irritation and Chronic Exposure Hazard:
Wear gloves. DO NOT use hands or any part of your body to
mix seed lubricant. Wear a respirator when transferring and
mixing. Avoid breathing lubricant dust. Not an acute hazard.
May cause mechanical eye or skin irritation in high
concentrations. As with all mineral spills, minimize dusting
during clean-up. Prolonged inhalation may cause lung injury.
Product can become slippery when wet.
To maximize performance of Great Plains metering systems, it
is imperative to use only “Ezee Glide Plus” lubricant.
“Ezee Glide Plus” lubricant is mandatory for all seeds, espe-
cially treated or inoculated seed.
Thorough mixing of seed and added lubricant is required.
