SME Spindle Oil - Where To Buy

I recently moved to a new house and in the process some of the spindle oil drained out of my SME 20/2.

I thought I had some extra but I can't find it so I'm looking for a source.  I am also wondering if another brand of oil that is more readily available might work just as well?  

I'm pretty sure I can find it on overseas websites but I'd rather find it in the U.S.  I did ask Music Direct but they don't have it.

Thanks for your help.

PTFE/Teflon oil are excellent for this kind of applications, often better than silicon oil used by manufacturers. The Superlube PTFE oil comes in a handy pen format, for 5 bucks per 0.25oz.

It's this that I would never consider a SME table
