I have used a teflon spray. But it may have the same carrier characterists.

At the risk of disagreeing with Jay, I would not use a silicone spray.
The carrier for the silicone oil has destroyed more plastic than I care to

Anyone else experienced this nasty side effect of silicone sprays?



yes - not with any plastic on an aircraft. But I've seen silicone destroy
some plastic years ago.
