  Another one is the LPS series.  LPS-2 is sometimes used for corrosion 
proofing airplanes.
There is LPS 1, 2, and 3.  LPS 1 being primarily a penetrating oil of 
very low viscosity and rather high volatility.   LPS 2 is a grease 
suspended in a solvent (Likely LPS1) that evaporates leaving a thin 
layer of grease behind.  LPS 3 is a fairly high viscosity lube/grease 
that can be sprayed out of the can.

Corrosion proofing of airplanes done with LPS-2 lasts for years.  Don't 
get it done in the winter, or every time the weather warms up the thing 
will set there on the ramp (or in the hangar) dripping grease.  Done in 
the Summer they drip for a week or two.
