I also suggest removing whatever exists and replacing it with lubrication. Any lubrication is most likely better than whatever preservative DD uses. The lube doesn't need to be the latest and greatest wonder lube. Whatever's on the shelf at WalMart or the local farm supply business will work. As was already stated, motor oil will also work fine, as will whatever lube's in your nightstand.
...though if you don’t own any lube, I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that you also don’t have any solvent or cleaning supplies.
