How are you supposed to get it on the guides without completely
disassembling the tower? You might as well try to coat the
inside of a pipe with beeswax.
I heard about some ultraslippery substance they invented at MIT
to coat the insides of ketchup bottles, so the ketchup doesn't
stick to the bottle. I wonder if it would work on tower guides?
How about applying 10 mil adhesive backed teflon tape to the guides?
