Solution
Slide a piece of paper around the chrome slide bar ( if that is what it is
called) so that nothing else will get wet when you give it a quick spray
with CRC or similar. (I use Ballistol)
I find CRC to be very oily / horrible.
Try using Ezy Glide or similar silicone based spray lubricant (from
most hardwares.)
Doesn't stain, is a dry lube (not oily), usually lasts longer, comes
with a straw for those hard-to-reach areas and doesn't attract dust /
grit.
Works on all sorts of stuff (and makes computer fans silent when
sprayed on the bearings!)
