Don't laugh until you've tried this. My St Pete slides were stiff and hard to move. I asked my repairman what could be done, and he told me to get a small can of Bag Balm, yeah, the same as used on cows. It's also darn good hand lotion. Anyway, clean the slides, then apply Bag Balm to one tube. Insert just that tube and rotate as far as possible while sliding in and out. Then do the other slide and other tube. Clean the tube with a swab, and wipe the slide clean. Apply a fresh coat of Bag Balm. Repeat of still sticky, but I'll bet it won't be necessary.
