I use Ravenol Blue, a German high grade grease.  Ravenol is known to be the premier choice of major German manufactures like BMW, MAN, Diamler Crysler, Porche, Volvo, and many others.  It's SKF approuved and vater ressistant, with a temperature span up to 240 degrees celcius.   As far as I know is it not available in the US, but can be purchased at Ebay.  



Ravenol is a lithium/mineral oil based grease, and have an excellent lubrication and rust protection.  Calcium based grease(marine grease), do I find less suited for smaller parts(fishing reels). Calcium grease provides a better resistance to saltwater, but it's lubrication is less effective on small parts IMO.

I used to work at MAN diesel(worlds largest producer of marine engines), and we have done a lot of scientific research on this issue regarding our engines, not fishing reels.
