GM has been recommending their Superlube PTFE product for many years. Here is the 2022 Silverado owners manual. It goes on clear.
Thats what I use. Bicycle chain lube. Goes on a super thin spray but carrier evaporates, leaving a light grease. Works better than greases, oil etc as it really gets into the joint. Castrol chain lube has molyI like the dry spray lube that has teflon in it. Need to apply it several times though, letting the carrier flash off between sprays.
There is also the liquid in small bottles marketed for bicycles.
I also find that silicone lubricant, while wet, attracts far less dirt than traditional lubes. Most of it tends to leave the area but a thin film remains.
I used to use Silkolene on my bicycles and four wheeler. A good chain lube is wonderful stuff, engineered very well.Thats what I use. Bicycle chain lube.

What are the products you use ?I lubricate every moving part (that's accessible) and condition all the rubber every 3,000 mile oil change. Wash and wax once a week also. My 17-24 year old vehicles run and look almost new.
Me too, only if I hear a noise--there is often a slider arm as well.I usually spray white lithium grease on mine once or twice a year...keeps the noises away.
Same, except I use new oil. My lawnmower doesn't use an even amount of oil, so I always have an ounce or so remaining to put in my oiler. And since my Jeep's owner's manual specifically calls for PCMO on the hinges, that's what I use.I'm old school, I apply used Gear Oil on the hinges by using Spring Bottom Oil Can
Fluid Film creeps in slowly & stays a long time.I noticed that on many new cars the door hinges & hood hinges don't have any grease on them. Do you apply grease to these or do you think they are fine without it? I would think the best thing is to apply some grease, don't know why there isn't any from the factory. thanks
