In case you're not aware of what it is:

Teflon based lubricant called "Tri-Flow."
Appears to micro-sized teflon ball "bearings?"
held in fluid.  Available at Bicycle shops.

Have used this after an alcohol bath (to loosen
dried grease) when freeing up many TT drives.
Never hardens or dries up.

Have never found damaged worm drives in the dozen
I have fixed, so have not had to rebuild any.

Tri-Flow is a keeper, in my book...
