WD-40 has a reaction with salt water that makes a sticky mess. You may get

McLube seems to be the best. It's probably something common repackaged and
repriced but I havent' figured out what yet and it isn't expensive enough to
worry about.

Roger,

I like your idea and am going to pinch it (copy) but have never heard
of "McLube". Does Napa carry it?

Also, til now I have been using silicon spray which doesn't last a;;
that long. How does your McLube compare with silicon?
