I highly recommend Caig Products.  

I built my K3 #604 using Caig DeoxIT ProGold.  
I used the small plastic tube and slid it over each male pin, completely
coating each pin.  

This provides some lubrication for each pin allowing easier insertion and
removal. 
This eliminates oxidation of the pins.
This keeps the contact resistance low. 

It's a good thing.
