I can't find it anywhere on Amazon. They have several other types from Chevron, but no "open gear".

I wouldn't go exotic, it's a gear drive, a design old as dirt. Keep it lubed and it's golden. I've not tried cv grease as it's made for a completely different animal. Not saying it won't work, just that that's not what it's made for.
I'm sorry, I misspoke, you can find it on ebay
Just search "chevron open gear grease"
One tube ought to lube about 50 compressors!

I use food grade green grease in my CS3 and have yet to have an issue. I have cleaned and regreased it twice in the 2 years that I've owned it. I am the second owner. The first owner used it very little until he upgrade to a bigger compressor for filling tanks. He went with the CS4 and I think he's upgraded again to the CS5.
