reel lube help

i need a little help if anyone wants to give advice.  i am going to lube and oil my spinning reels.  in the past i had someone who did them all cheap, but he no longer is in business.  i can't find my box of owner manuals, mostly shimanos so i thought i would look here.  would appreciate any help.  thanks, rich.

              Shimano reels have their own oil for reels. I got some threw the Shimano site as I have a older and a newer Stella. I tried other oil  on the older model and slowed it down. So I contacted Shimano and got oil..lube threw them and cleaned reel and now it is as good as new.
              Here is Shimano web site on their reel maintainance 
       http://fish.shimano.com/publish/content/fish/sac/us/en/customer_service/reel_maintenance_instractions.-MainContent-0007-DownloadFile.tmp/Maintenance%20Tips-%20Spinning%20Reels%20(1%20page).pdf.pdf                                       Fish on-------->*}}}}><
     
       Also a phone number in that file to call and get Shimano oil for shimano reels

    i used that hot sauce last night on a couple of older reels that were "crunching" a bit.  may have to take the head off to get to the bearings on an older sedona.
