What kinda' damping fluid for VPI tonearms?

Hello and thanks for reading my post-
I just received a VPI JMW Sig arm upgrade from VPI and they forgot to send the damping fluid, and they are on vacation. Do any VPI owners or distributors know what kinda' fluid I could use or is the stuff from VPI the best thing to use.

The damping fluid goes in the pivot holder under the back of the arm. Don't over fill-use a qtip if you do.

Get a hold of Dan at DedicatedAudio.com he has a wealth of knowledge on the VPI stuff.

Mike from VPI e-mailed me today. He stressed not to use other than their damping fluid as other fluids can deteriorate the point.
