I'm familiar with it -- my bike shop stocks both it and Krytox (but 
not the GPL-203 -- GPL-206 and -226, which are thicker, about the 
same as the Phil Wood grease).  The Wood & Co. is great grease, but 
still organic (petroleum-based), so it will eventually harden.  It's 
also a bit thick for PTOs, IMO.  Krytox GPL-203 is inorganic 
(perfluoropolyether with PTFE) and shouldn't harden for 
millennia.  It also has significantly greater lubricity.
Best regards,
