White lithium grease for the hitch?

What do you think about using white lithium spray grease for the hitch ball and the spring bars? I've got the spray handy and don't want to open a whole tube of grease for this small job. Thanks.
  • I have pulled trailers for many years and never greased the ball, but if that's what makes you feel better why not put a piece of waxed paper over the ball before hitching. This way your wife wont have to wash the grease from your clothes.
