VPI Signature 21 Lubricate

I want lubricate my new Signature 21 TT after some use, so would like know about lubricate type.

Bearing: is any white Lithium grease with PTFE, or Super Lube 21030 grease good as VPI Magic Lube?

Motor: is any multi purpose oil (PTFE or no) would do the job, such Super Lube 60016 or 51004, or 51010, … ?

Thanks a lot for responses!

For inverted bearing I use Phil Wood lithium grease (made for bicycles) and no issues. A little dab on bearing ball and good to go. I lubricate the bearing and motor once a year. I still have some of the motor oil that came with my VPI SAMA in a syringe. If still not sure email VPI.
