Brown grease used inside the tail light connectors?

Does anyone here know where I can find the brown/tan corrosion resistant grease GM used inside the tail light bulb connectors? The grease in some of the connectors on mine has turned hard and I’d like to clean them out and replace the grease if possible. Thanks.

Re: Brown grease used inside the tail light connectors?

That particular product has been replaced/ superseded by modern day DiElectric Lubricant (non-hardening).

However, it should only be used when there is an issue with water intrusion/ corrosion...
Dielectric Lubricant does not conduct electricity (contradictory to common belief)...

So DO NOT get any on the Electrodes/ Electrical Contacts!
