I expected you to recommend whale oil or goose grease.

Doesn't come in an aerosol. I have a proper cable greaser which
attaches to a tyre pump, and its something I did a long time ago but
aerosols are ideal applicators and the solid lubricants work well when
chosen correctly. Still grease exposed wire under bottom bracket
shell.
