I did end up getting a 12-can case of the Crown silicon lube a few months
back -- approx. 11.5 more cans than I need. I still have a few left. If
anyone wants a can for cost + shipping (probably ~ $15 total) let me know.
It does seem to help smooth the action of the Delrin bearings.

Thanks to Ron, I tried it on my elevator and it loosened it up
considerably.
I sprayed some on the inside control column bearings and that helped too.
Now the elevator will actually drop to full forward position just by
gravity. I have never had that. So looks like this stuff does indeed work.
Wayne knows his plastics, that's for sure.

I should do it to my flaperon ones, too.

Will have to see what happens next time I am up in cold (minus freezing)
weather to see if they don't stiffen up now. During warm weather, like now
in summer, they were always OK.
