Lee, I wonder how tri-flow would work? Tri-flow is a teflon based lubricant. I use to use it on my kids bike chaings because it would not attract dirt. I think I will get some of it for my table saw. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lee A.

I am not sure about aluminum windows Betsey but you do have a good memory. years ago Don Patterson suggested on the blind handyman show to use Silicone spray for my vinyl windows and it works fantastic. I did however find out it does not alast as long in the kitechen as one = window is near the stove and when they cook fried foods that stuff in the air seems to plugh up the sliders so a simple wash with dish detergent and a reapplication of the silcone spray makes the window a one finger touch a great deal .
