  1. The guy at an LBS told me that TiPrep was toxic and
    cautioned against getting any on the skin.

    Is this stuff really needed when installing a BB or would
    plain old pipefitters anti-sieze do the same job - albiet a
    little more messily?

    If not, any idea why?

    It is copper-based anti-seize, exactly the same stuff you
    can get at any NAPA auto parts place for a whole lot less
    cash. It comes in a squeeze tube with a fairly fine point,
    not really all that messy at all.
