Try Dow High-Vacuum Grease instead. I keep it around for the vacuum work, but
it's perfect for any application where you can't use petroleum-based grease
(plastics, rubber, etc.). It's a must-have for o-ring assemblies in
everything from underwater cameras to the kitchen sink:

A tube of K-Y jelly. Great for lubricating heavy walled hose so it slips
onto the barb easier.
But it gets some really strange looks from visitors to the boat shed.
