You might want to use it for a different purpose: http://www.amazon.com/Jorvet-J0109-J-Lube-Obstetrics-10-Ounce/dp/B006G2S17A

Subject: pink powder

I have been having a problem with the key sliding into the door lock on my DoKa.  Now, my dad was a confirmed Graphite man, swore by and at it all his life.  After rummaging about in the legacy junk pile some might call treasure (but not anyone I know), I found a bulbous rubber squirter with a thin needle like end.  It still had some heft to it, so I knew it was not empty.  In defiance of all my years of experience, I inserted the end of this tool and squirted what turned out to be a pink powdery substance into my lock.
So, my question is, “What is this pink powder, and am I in trouble?”

The powder seems sort-of slippery.
