I hate to say this, but putting never seize on lug nuts is a bad idea and almost never recommended. On fact value is seems like a good idea, but it's not. Torque values are for dry studs, not "wet' or lubricated ones. Do a search on the internet about using lubricant on lug bolts. I'm sure you'll find article after article advising not to do it with long draw out explanations. I always carry a 3 foot long piece of 2" galvanized pipe with me in the wheel well with the spare tire and a forged, not welded, iron cross lug wrench. The one piece ones that look like a +. The ones that are welded in the center are crap and I've bent several of the ones that come with a vehicle from the manufacturer. If a lug is too tight to loosen it by hand I just slip the pipe over the lug wrench for some extra torque. If necessary, sometimes standing or even jumping on the pipe also helps break the lug free. .
