Black water tank gate valve

I bought a new gate valve about a month ago to replace a broken valve. I installed it and was happy how easy it was. After a month it started sticking and to the point that it was going to break. I decided to take it off and check things out. Once I got it off it was completely dry off any lube which was making the valve hard to operate, so i read that petroleum jelly should be used but I didn't have any so I used some red gear axle grease and I put it together and works great. I hope that this will be ok. Has anyone ever used this kind of lube on this valve before?
