Window Reg Lubrication

[68AusCUDA]

So what does everyone use to lubricate their window regulator runners?

Mine were caked in old yellow grease that was full of dirt and fibers (from the carpet?). I was wondering if there was a better product that wouldn't get gummed up with so much rubbish. Presumably a low temp grease is best for remaining soft as well.

Had the same dried up stuff when I replaced door panels over the summer. I'm trying some marine grease I had laying around. Don't know how well it play over time but it made windows roll up much easier.
CITGO SUPERGARD Marine Plus Grease is a smooth but tacky blue grease with outstanding water resistance. It is designed to provide excellent lubrication for greased chassis points and other wet-environment applications. It combines an anhydrous calcium thickener, special polymer, and proprietary additive system to ensure superior performance in freshwater marine applications. Recommended for marine applications including greased chassis points, boat lifts, etc. Lubricates well over a wide temperature range up to 250° F. It is not recommended for automotive disc brake wheel bearings. It is also an excellent choice in non-marine applications where a general purpose EP grease with outstanding water resistance is desired, such as water pumps, fifth wheels and other equipment operating in wet conditions.

When I clean mine up and painted them I just used white lithium grease, even used it on the back side of the new felt glass channel.

Can even use it on the spring on the window reg. just clean it all up and ready apply.
