IIRC there was a recall on that item years ago to replace the 2-piece metal sliders with a solid plastic one ... which ones do you have? If you have the metal ones there's nothing you can do but lubricate them regularly.

Oh ... and in terms of "with what" I suggest an anti-seize lube with aluminum and copper - the paint on kind that's really quite thick.
