It is all i have around and it seems to be pretty greasy. It came with my treadmill for lubricating the motor or something and if it works on treadmills I assume it would work on a washing machine right?

On treadmills-beleive the silicone grease is for lubing the belt-you put it under the belt and run the treadmill to spread the lube-it lubes the walking platen under the belt.
