N64 Sticks and Grease

So I want to prevent any further damage to my N64 controller that still works very well and the two replacement sticks I bought. I see people talking about greasing the parts, but no one agrees on what type, silicone, lithium, ceramic... Has anyone had success with a certain type over a period of time that won't eat the plastic?

 

Damn I never thought of that. I use whatever I have in hand most of the time, the one I use for bearings or joints in the car.

 

I used White lithium grease for my xeye cd drive. Lithium grease won't eat the plastic.

 

Yep white lithium will be the best option.

 

All 3 should be fine but there are some white lithium greases that are petroleum based. You want to avoid those as petroleum can degrade plastic. I have read ultra lube white lithium grease is good and it is not petroleum based.

 

White lithium is whats used on optical drives on all the plastic parts.

 

White lithium grease it is then, thanks to all!
