Default Delco Remy switched & grease, Good read.

I have rebuilt a number of Headlight & Neutral Safety switches and always wondered what the best grease might be... & if Silicone grease would be a good idea or not.
These old switches always contain dried up White Lithium grease so that is what I have been using. Delco engineers where no dummies.
Here is a worthy article with some answers.

I use dielectric grease when I rebuild them.
