What is the best way to lube the sliding window in a Mecaplex

canopy?
Mine is a bit stiff, and I don't want to break it by using too

much
force.
It will slide, but stiffly.


Clean the tracks with wet soft cotton cloth (not paper towel).
Work the window back and forth, clean again, and get all the grit

out.

What UH says (very fine paper!)


Pledge or bees wax helps too


Or try some talcum powder...
