Default Grease Questions

What would be the preferred grease for front wheel bearings? Most all greases have "wheel bearing" on the can... Some have MFG logos ie GM or ford etc.... Does the color tell anything about its application? Also, there are part numbers on the cans... is there a preferred PN? What about the synthetics? Thanks... :flag

Well, I guess I'll throw away my tube and tub of red grease in favor of synthtics! :yesnod:
