Search in a local hobby store, I used some for model cars. You don't really need something special for stabs.

Superlube: Recommended by The_Beast and used by WASDKeyboards. I was told you could grab it at hardware stores or Home Depot.

Yes, but as I said you can use various lubes. Just get something that's available and not too expensive.
