Electric wheelchair transmission

I have a large wheelchair tranny I pulled from one of those wal-mart style scooter (like the ones they provide for the customers) a few years ago and I'm just now getting around to using it. It was built in 97' and works just fine. However my idiot friend drilled a hole into the plastic casing for the gearbox and probably got dirt and who knows what else in there. Heres my question when I take this apart to clean it all out what would be the safest method of cleaning all the gears and caseing and what type of grease should I use to refill it? This stuff is thick and I mean thick!
