Sliding door grease

[deccauk]

Anyone know what sort of grease is used on the bodywork for the sliding door bottom roller. I degreased mine to clean it all up, and now it's too dry and a bit "gritty" when moved.

It doesn't appear to be normal grease, because the degreaser didn't remove it all.

I looked at mine last week and I think the roller itself is dry but rolls on a a strip of something that resembles under seal.
I try not to lubricate it as it will attract dust and eventually gum up.

I just use silicone spray on moving bits

Mine looks like it's running on bare unpainted metal.

On my T6 Ocean its wax what the side door runs on. That would be hard to remove!
Of course all dust and other particles end up combining with the wax. Im still looking for something to lubricate the rollers possibly is silicon spray a good alternative!

Silicon is Ok, PTFE spray seems better.
