I assume the calcium based Penrite Graphite Grease listed on page 1, in your first post is OK. It's a giant tub though, enough to do all the locks of my town for a few generations.
I have used a graphite lube in an aerosol from Maplins. It's been fine, however it's messy and every time it's used the lock gets a bit more black and my fingers get coated.
I recommend lithium graphite for any part of the lock that actually turns.
