Can't advise on the correct grade, Ralf, but the source is most likely to be
www.micro-tools.de (although their online shopfront appears to have
crashed). You can see their range on the US site, with three grades of
helical grease listed on this page http://preview.tinyurl.com/y9vuyfl

Subject: [OM] Speaking of grease
All this talk about oily blades reminded me that I have a 85/2.0 and a
300/4.5 with a veeeery smooth focus mechanism. Too smooth, in fact.
I probably need to clean the old grease and to reapply new one.
The problem is that I don't know what is the right lubricant to use, so I'm
asking advice, with a preference to a product that I can buy here in Europe.
Thanks in advance,
Ralf
