Hello guys, I have used the Slip-it https://www.slipit.com/all-products/sf-sliding-compound/index.html for hand-planes on wood, also on hand saw and jig saw blades to reduce friction.
It is non toxic paste with a little bit of liquid oil and becomes softer with temperature (soft year-round for So Cal weather). I can apply it with cheap brushes and due to being silicone free it doesn't cause fish eye on finishing Regardless don't put it on the piece you're cutting, just on metal tools or wood on wood jigs. It does not dry or film, (note manufacture claims it attracts less dust - due to paste wax sitting on top of oil), but as long as the gunk has a place to go it wouldn't affect operation. one quart lasts forever. you just dip a brush lightly on top of the soft oily paste and apply liberally over surface of intended travel of your tool. If it's possible to coat the rails with epoxy precisely that will be most slide-y surface. I have a legacy in the garage for few years now, bought for $300 cash including the Porter Cable Router.. haven't got to using it yet. Slip-it is what I would use on the metal contact points.
