Anyone have a fix for this????

DuPont Teflon Dry Lube. A fairly new product that is probably one of the best for lubricating anything out there. It goes on wet, dries quickly and leaves a nice slippery DRY FILM on everything you put it on. Lowes Home Centers under $5. Comes in spray or liquid. I have been using it on just about everything...including bicycle and motorcycle chains. It keeps them clean yet very slippery .

When I was a younger man, I was an avid scuba diver. I used a silicone based wax to lube the zippers on my wet suits. About a month ago I was reorganizing some of my material possessions and I came across a stick of this stuff . It was about 16 years old and still looked as good as the day I bought it. In addition to zippers, I discovered it worked great on drawer slides and sliding door tracks, even in extreme temperatures.

After a Google search, I couldn't find the exact brand I used, but today's equivalent seems to be Max Wax.
