Any lubrication is better than none. Keep grease in bearings by greasing often. For plain bearings, (bushings) a moly (molylebdeum) spelling?? is best. The moly acts like little ball bearings, but if the grease is allowed to dry out the little ball bearings now act as a lapping compound. I am a retired mill mechanic/machinist and one of our engineers explained this to me. I haven't bothered to get a moly grease for my plain bearings though, I just try to grease often. Sealed ball bearings can be greased by carefully getting a small smooth pick or screwdriver under the inside of the seal and carefully prying it out, putting some grease in, and carefully, with your thumbs and maybe a screwdriver working the seal back into the outside of the bearing. Shielded bearings can be greased by carefully drilling a small hole, 1/16" or less in the shield, injecting grease, clean the hole area with solvent, and put a small dab of silicone gasket maker over the hole.
