lubricating slide outs

Does anyone have any idea about how to lubricate slide outs on a 2006 tiffin zephyr? It is sealed up and I can't figure out how to do it

  • It's probably sealed up because no maintenance is required.
  • I have a few cans of Slipplate sitting around since I have a sliding hitch , so I use that..

    I would think that any dry graphite spray would work... I believe that you would not want any type of lubrication that will attract dirt particles....
  • I would check with the manufacturer of your slide outs. Our's specifically say they should not be greased. The only maintenance called for is to make sure the rails are clear of dirt and debris.
