Default Tri-flow - which one?

Yay! I have finally found a stockist of Tri-flow in the UK. Unfortunately I am totally confused by the different varieties on offer. Please can someone have a look and tell me which ones I need for oiling and greasing vintage machines.

Many thanks.

You want the lubricant for oiling metal and the grease for gears. just don't use the grease in motor grease cups, use singer grease for that. Great stuff!

Please don't get me started on the prices in the UK, it makes me want to cry sometimes.

But at least vintage machines are plentiful and cheap.
