Do I lube cable housing before replacing shifter cable?

Hi all,
I have to replace my shifter cable TODAY in order to be able to ride in 4 hours. (Sorry for the last minute query but I didn't realize it would get complicated.)
(1) Should I lube the cable housing before installing the new shifter cable and, if so...
(2) Does it matter which lube I use? I have Finish Line Dry teflon lube, but the description on the can talks only about using it for chains...
Thanks in advance for well-informed replies from the community!
