Power window lubricant

[Imperial dude]

I finally got a couple of the power windows working in my 64 Imperial, now time to take it all back apart, clean and lubricate the motors and slides
What does a everyone suggest? White lithium, good ole bearing grease, or something else?
Thanks in advance

Factory used white lithium.

Just don’t use white lithium in a can it hardens up after a few years and causes problems.

I use red wheel bearing grease from a grease gun tube on the gears and exposed parts. And then spray lube for hard to reach places.

Synthetic lubricants will not harden up.
I used this one but there's plenty of choice out there.

That Autol grease looks very good but where do you buy it in North Am?

eBay has it but the shipping is ridiculous.

After I repaired my power windows, I lubed the tracks, gears and rollers with disc brake caliper pin lube. Everything works nice and smooth.

Thinking a little out of the box here, has anyone used any gun oils like CLP?

I think those oils are to thin to do much good over time. I doubt you'd disassemble and clean your window mechanisms after every few uses.
