I like Penetrox and Noalox for this application.  Just be sure to clean the 
old parts thoroughly before lube-reassembly.  I like to use kerosene as a 
cleaner, applied with an automotive parts cleaning brush.
Of course, you can always send it out for professional refurb.

 I don't know the conductive properties of that Permatex mixture.  Since one
of the primary purposes of the Penetrox-type mixtures is to enhance
conductivity, I wouldn't use anything that wasn't designed for the purpose
of electrical conductivity.
