wash that crap off there, and get the proper grease gun tip for the hinges!
notice that you have original door checks in there. are they all working smoothly? if not get them yanked out before you break one and jam your door open!
I sprayed a little bit of white lithium grease on the hinges. Is that what you are seeing? What is a proper grease gun tip and what is the proper grease? The lithium grease aerosol can splatters like when you have the runs and makes a mess. The door checks are working wonderfully. They are smooth, makes no noise and stop on both detents and hold the door in their respective positions perfectly.
