This was the supplier, at one time, according to what I have been told.

I have used the dry formula for almost 20 years for various applications. Really good stuff but rather hard to find in retail stores.
I originally discovered that Stars and Stripes (Americas Cup) used the dry formula on their sails (of all things). I tried it on several problem areas of my sail boat and was amazed at the result.
I located it in West Marine Boat stores. I generally buy 2-3 tubes and 2 dry spray containers....at one time. It is moderately expensive....about what the GM dealer would charge for the Goodwrench container.

The dry is really the way to go. Dirt and debris will not adhere to it, it doesn't build up, if you wipe or brush against it accidentally.....you won't get grease or black goo on yourself (especially good for locks, key ways, door striker plates). I use it regularly on hood hinges and hold downs, and the "air shocks" for the hood and rear lift gate.
I use the grease type on assembly work. You can rub the stuff in until it vanishes and the lubrication properties are still there. For example, I used it on my car seat frames/rails. The seats adjust so easy....you better not be driving at the same time (which is a bad idea, anyway).
But it really comes down to your choice.
