Greasing Hiwin HG15

Thanks for the info on the grease nipples guys.
Does anyone know what is the best type of grease to use in these linear rails ?

This is the one I use, it's the right stuff at the right price.

First thing is, I would not recommend using the Hiwin size 15 linear bearing blocks because they are an abomination to grease. If though you do have them like I do, I found a good thread here about greasing them.
