The drawer slides on an old dresser are wood, somewhat like tongue and groove except on a much larger scale. A couple of the drawers started getting hard to slide open, so I applied some Dial bath soap to the grooves. That helped a little, but still not as free as I would like. That got me to thinking that perhaps modern soap is not as good for that purpose as grandpa's old soap. Modern soap is slick when wet, but doesn't seem to be much use when dry. Is there a better lube for wood-on-wood, one that will not absorb into the wood or stain it?
