What kind of silicone lubricant are they talking about in this video? (It's applied to o-rings in kitchen faucets.) I'm
on the way to Lowe's, so I want to make sure I get the right stuff.

Isn't this what everyone uses,

$3.37 for a small container. FWIW there is also this

$2.99 for the same size container, and sold by Danco, the same ones who

does that mean in practice.
