Lube for stabilizer jacks

I used motorcycle chain lube, the white grease/wax kind. It goes on thin and penetrates, then dries to a semi-dry, tacky film which does not attract dirt and refuses to wash off.

Then, after I realized how good it worked, it became impossible to put any tension on my stabilizers without them backing themselves off!!! I now have stabilizer locks that I made to keep the jacks where I put them. I have tried to use solvent to remove the lube, but it really stays put! Not sure they'll ever be the same again, but I've stopped the wear and squeaking completely, LOL!
