Hinge Pin Lube Survey

Thought I would initiate a thread to see what others are using to lube the hinge pins. I currently use Krytox, a Dupont teflon grease. I started using Krytox after reading forums on South Bend lathes. Apparently users are injecting it into the spindle on the older models. This completely eliminates daily oiling at this point and improves (apparently) lathe operation. I figured it would work really well for the hinge pin on a fine double.

What do you use?
