Default Bipes- or other with window squeek when going up or down- what lubrication should I use?

I don't remember what I used last year, but it is back again. I remember it was a spray, don't think it was WD-40, I need something to spray lubricate the cable that pulls the windows up and down. It was SOOOOOO nice last year when I FINALLY got it fixed. In case some of you have the problem, the part that needs to be lubricated is the cables that goes into the white plastic piece INSIDE the door, seems something in that motor is squeeking, and lubricating the cable solves it, at least for a year.

Any recommendations for a good lube?
