Get some very high viscosity silicone oil from a hobby shop. RC cars use it (for diff fluid, I think).
Do you really want high viscosity? That might cause the cuing to take hours.
I'd think that somewhere in the low hundreds of cs would be more suitable.

Yes, you want high viscosity. I have used 50,000 cs and it is still fast. I have seen recommendations for 300,000 to 600,000. This discussion is not helped by the fact that different viscosity units are used, and the guys working in hobby shops usually don't know what units they mean. Luckily the usual units are more-or-less interchangeable.
