Significant Technical Input
Lithium would be good on the cables themselves, they are inside the rear portions of the track and inside the tubes. The guides/tracks themselves are smooth aluminum with hard plastic (delrin?) glides. They shouldn't require any lube but if you're adamant about trying something I would suggest some type of graphite lube, such as bicycle chain lube. Grease attracts and holds dirt and grime, graphite is dry and doesn't do that. Check with your local bike shop.
