Default Do you Lube Your slide rails?

I searched for this subject but couldn't find what I was after so thought I'd just start another thread!

For those of you with electric slides, do you lube your slide rails? If so, with what? What have you found that works well and what have you found you would never use again?

I have a fairly dry spray that has some graphite suspended in it and I was thinking of trying that. Also have a quick dry spray that is a Teflon base. I figure that it would be good to reduce friction by lubing the rails, but want to know from those of you who do what you are finding sucess with.

For locks I tell my customers never to use certain products like WD-40 as it is NOT a good lubricant and attracts a lot of junk to it. I use WD-40 to break rusty stuff loose and as a parts cleaner but not as a final lubricant. I am sure that there are similar issues with lubing the slide rails so I ask you for your input.

Thanks in advance!
