As Freedom and Shrimp Burrito pointed out, the Teflon spray is pretty good stuff. I buy it at Lowe's, where it is carried as DuPont Teflon Dry Film Lubricant, Item# 213197. I can't find it at Home Depot, which is unusual, since they largely overlap. Note that Teflon Spray is not the same as silicone spray, which seems to be available everywhere.

I use this stuff in a lot of places, especially the jackscrews on the scissors jacks. It sticks well, dries dry, and doesn't seem to pick up all the grit and sand that grease does.

So consider this one more vote in favor of having a can of it in your hitch-up kit.
