The grease you're looking for is Molybdendium DiSuphide. It's black in color and it does have it's own smell that I can't really describe. Most auto stores have some form of it, Wolfs Head is now making a wheel bearing grease that's moly based. Go to your local auto parts store and ask for a tube of moly grease, it works here.
