I have no proof, but I use motorcycle chain lube. It goes on as a low viscosity oil, seeps into tighter clearances, and then coagulates into a grease like lube. It is made to penetrate into chain link pins, and works well. Hinges are very of similar construction. I have about 143,000 miles on my car, and no door sagging......yet...
