GreymannI use spray silicone its not as messy as grease. Lithium grease is a dirt magnet in New Mexico. The silicone spray works good but doesn't last as long as grease. I spray the door hinges once a year.

AITGI use LPS-1. It is non-staining, doesn't leave marks if it drips on concrete and dries without any dirt attracting residue. It's pricey but lasts longer than most other dry lubes.

I had to quit using that stuff because of the smell. Much prefer Eezox.

bettysnephewI don't know if it is still available but GM used to have a product called Spray a Squeak lube that worked quite well. It came out of the can in a tan color, was almost liquid but firmed up into a grease in a short time. It penetrated well when it was applied and after congealing stayed in place. It was aways used by mechanics for door hinges and worked extremely well for that application.
ETA, after thinking about this for a bit, the product was Lubriplate Type A rather than Spray a Squeak. Cut me a little slack, I haven't worked in the car shop for well over 50 yers.
