I thnk the cup grease that was originally used was more akin to the high metallic soap ball bearing grease, the so called fibrous grease. That stuff was a little more wax like and if you put a little between two fingers and then seperated the fingers, you could see the "fibrose" strands from the sticky grease. No actual fibers mind you, just sticky grease threads. I have some of that stuff that I use on front axle ball bearings.
