    It can also be black,blue,red,yellow,green or an other colour the manufacturer decides to make it I've been using Nulon Xtreme Performance Grease with PTFE (L80) a lithium based grease which is red ( I use this because I got it cheap )
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you
