Gilligan,
Just to be clear, you use the Sea and Sea grease for your WP-DC28 housing? The Canon directions say "Only Use Canon Grease." I lost my canon grease, so I was thinking of using the Sea and Sea. A few people have warned against it. You're the Canon guru so I'll take your word. Thanks

Been using it for over a year with no problems. What you have to be careful of is any grease that breaks down the O-ring by making it gummy and/or stretching it.
Canon won't tell you to use any grease but theirs for economic and liability reasons. Same for Sea & Sea with their products.
I use the Sea & Sea grease in the yellow tube with the blue top.
Read this LINK which states the Sea & Sea grease is suitable for Canon, Olympus, Panasonic, Sea & Sea and Sony underwater camera housing o-rings.
