Some people use Red N Tacky. Labelle 106 also works well. Multipurpose grease (any color) should work as long as the viscosity isn't too thick (as in high temperature wheel bearing grease). Wipe off the old grease first, but don't go crazy.

Amen!
I use Lucas white grease. Works great!
Truthfully, for the exterior exposed gears, I use a bit of oil, grease there has a tendancy to collect stuff like ballast. For the interior worms, I use Red-N-Tacky. I have yet to see the exterior gears worn out, but I have seen the shafts worn out, oil penetrates there better than grease.
