What kind of grease should I use to re-lube this? I

adequate lubrication between the plastic and steel, but I don't want
something that will hurt the plastic. I was thinking about using
dielectric grease, since it shouldn't harm plastic, won't melt out, and
isn't too messy. However, it's designed as a moisture barrier, not
really as a lubricant, I believe. Thoughts anyone?
I'd recommend Sil-Glide--a silicone gel. Safe for use with just about
anything, including rubber and nylon. Get it at an auto parts store.
