Squeaky door hinges

Hello everyone
I live in a coastal marine environment with lots of salty air. My doors on our 2020 T@g 6' wide have developed quite loud squeaks; I assume from the aluminum hinges oxidizing. Today, I applied jig-a-loo spray and it helped a lot. Are there other lubricants that you would recommend?
Thanks
David from salty air, but beautiful Nova Scotia

I use silicone spray it works fine.
I like fluid film a lot or Super lube silicone spray.
If you use Fluid film, make sure you have a rag to wipe the excess.
Boty lub are dialectric lubricant, with will help mitigate the oxydation process from metal conduction difference.
Thanks for the replies JamesDow and Lucky J. I was unfamiliar with both products. I am going to try Fluid film; it sounds like an effective lube for my situation.
Used some silicone spray and took care of it. For more long-lasting eradication, try using a product like Break Free or something similar to lubricating oil like 3 in 1.
I use silicone
Boeshield T-9 Bicycle Lubricant worked wonders for my door hinge squeaks. Bought it at REI.
